Roadside bomb kills 5 in jihadist-held Idlib
[ALMASDARNEWS] An improvised explosive device planted in a motorcycle exploded inside the rebel-held city of Idlib as tensions escalate among rival jihadi groups.The blast killed 5 militants from the ‘security force’ of al-Qaeda-affiliate Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham, and injured 10 others. The attack comes one week after the group (formerly known as Jabhet al-Nusra) was caught in heavy infighting with the FSA-affiliated Shaitat group. Elsewhere in Maarrat al-Numan to the south, HTS jihadists stormed bases for Division 13; an opposition action fighting under the banner of the Free Syrian Army. Posted by: Fred 2017-06-23 |
