Three planes conducted 17 air strikes west of Idlib, and the sounds of the explosions were heard over 20 kilometers away, activists said, as quoted by the al-Watan diary.

They added that missiles hit the largest camp of Tahrir al-Sham (“Organization for the Liberation of the Levant”), formerly al-Nusra Front, as well as headquarters and living quarters of the so-called Turkistan Islamic Party, whose members are mostly of foreign nationalities.

At least 30 terrorists Ambulances were evacuated from bombed sites, including dead and wounded, while the militants in the area established a tight security cordon around the attacked targets.

The Syrian Army managed to liberate 56 percent of Idlib during its 2020 operations, and the radicals control less than half, where they retain hundreds of thousands of civilians as human shields.
