... the more palatable version of the Syrian insurgency, heavily influenced by the Moslem Brüderbund...
(FSA) factions gathered all available fighters for a major joint counter-offensive in the northeastern countryside of Hama.

Targeting a rural area just north of the M42 Highway that was captured by the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) in recent weeks, Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS/Al-Qaeda) and the FSA’s Jaish al-Nasr and Central Division managed to retake the towns of al-Baleel and Umm Turaykiyeh in the afternoon, reportedly using a chemical substance to kick off the offensive.

In the evening hours, jihadist forces also overran the neighboring village of Umm Khazaym. However,

a SAA military source told al-Masdar News moments ago that opposition claims of any further gains were false.

Pictures of the counter-offensive show jihadists gathering for the attack and posing for pictures in the newly captured area. A couple of the photos, published online by the FSA and HTS respectively, even show the exact same fighters, indicating that the groups are operating shoulder-to-shoulder on the battlefield
