Syrian, Russian Forces Destroy Terrorist Drone Launch Sites in Idlib Countryside (+Video)
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Syrian armed forces, in cooperation with the Russian Air Force, successfully demolished terrorist headquarters, warehouses, and drone launch sites in the countryside of Idlib.
They effectively eliminated numerous terrorists and destroyed their weaponry, ammunition, and drones.
"In response to recent attacks by armed terrorist groups in the Hama and Latakia countryside, which resulted in civilian casualties and significant material damage to local properties, our brave armed forces, in collaboration with the Russian Air Force, have conducted several targeted operations against terrorist headquarters, warehouses, and drone launch sites in the Idlib countryside,” the Syrian Ministry of Defense said in a statement on Monday, adding that these operations have resulted in the destruction of the terrorists’ headquarters, including weaponry, ammunition, and drones, as well as the death and injuries of dozens of terrorists.
The ministry further highlighted that among the casualties were several leaders of terrorist groups, including Abdul Karim Abu Dawood al-Turkistani, Saifullah Abu Abdul Haq al-Turkistani, Mustafa Sheikh al-Sat, Abdul Rahman Saadoun, Abu Karrar, Mohammed Saeed Nasouh, Ridwan Maatramaoui, and Mahmoud Sheikh al-Hara.
In a separate development, a source from the Hama Police Command informed SANA news agency that terrorist organizations in Idlib had targeted the town of Jourin and its surroundings in the Ghab Plain, Hama countryside, using mortar shells and drones. However, the attacks resulted in only material damage.
Since the commencement of the recent phase of the Syrian military's campaign against terrorist groups in the region, there has been a notable increase in the presence of Syrian and Russian warplanes operating across all areas of Idlib province. The intensified airstrikes reflect a concerted effort to weaken and dismantle the stronghold of these terrorist organizations in the region.
