Aleppo: Syrian army spy footage, Syrian army reinforcements arrive to meet Turkish threat
 Daring footage shows Syrian Army spy filming from inside jihadist trenches in southern Aleppo [AlMasdar] (2:10 P.M.) – The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) continued their trolling campaign against the jihadist rebels in northern Syria, today, after releasing another video from behind enemy lines. This time around, the Syrian Arab Army released a video from the southern countryside of the Aleppo Governorate, where there is a large presence of jihadist rebels near the Idlib provincial axis. In this latest video that was released by the Tiger Forces branch of the Syrian military, the spy can be seen filming from the trenches raised by the jihadist rebels near the front-lines at Khan Touman. As shown in the video below, the Syrian Army spy goes undetected in the jihadist trenches, despite Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham’s ongoing security operation to identify and arrest government spies. Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham has detained dozens of people accused of working for the Syrian government in northwestern Syria recently; however, these wide-scale arrests have failed to put an end to these videos from the military. VIDEO: Syrian Army reinforcements arrive at Tal Rifat after Turkey’s threats [AlMasdar] (4:30 P.M.) – Troops from the Syrian Army have arrived at Tal Rifat in northern Aleppo in response to threats made by the Turkish military to storm the city. The city was seized by the Syrian and Russian forces after the Kurdish militia’s withdrawal as per an agreement. The deal was made after the Syrian rebels, backed by the Turkish army, took over Afrin region last March. The fresh reinforcements come as a response to latest threats issued by Turkey that it might attack Tal Rifat and Menagh airbase. Tensions rise in Aleppo as both Turkey, Syria build up forces for major confrontation [AlMasdar] (8:30 P.M.) – For the last two weeks, the Syrian and Turkish armies have been building up their forces near the strategic town of Tal Rifa’at in northern Aleppo. According to a military source in Aleppo city, the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) made the decision to buildup their troops around Tal Rifa’at after Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan vowed to retake the town from the Kurdish-led People’s Protection Units (YPG). The military source said that the Syrian Army’s High Command is committed to keeping the Turkish forces from taking this imperative hilltop town in northern Aleppo because it would give them access to the Mennagh Airbase. Turkey has already captured the Afrin region in northwest Aleppo; however, they have been unable to advance to Tal Rifa’at because of the Russian and Syrian forces at the nearby town of Deir Jamal. As shown in the video below, the Syrian Arab Army has sent another large military convoy to Deir Jamal, as they prepare for a potential confrontation with the Turkish forces.
