Jihadist counter-offensive takes a massive nose dive near Abu Dhuhour Airport
[ALMASDARNEWS] The jihadist counter-offensive in the Idlib Governorate tonight began with a lot of promise, as their forces managed to capture at least two towns near the Abu Dhuhour Military Airport.
However,
ars longa, vita brevis...
this success would be short-lived, thanks in large part to the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) reinforcements that arrived to drive back the encroaching jihadists.
According to a military source in Hama, the Syrian Arab Army killed a large number of jihadist rebels, including several members of the al-Qaeda linked Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham
.
The military source added that the Syrian Army destroyed several technical vehicles that belonged to the Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham holy warriors near the Abu Dhuhour Airport.
