De-escalation areas have been witnessing a military escalation by the Syrian government forces and opposition groups

On Saturday, the Syrian government forces continued their intense shelling on the sites of the opposition groups in Idlib and Hama, northwest Syria.

“The government forces targeted the sites of the opposition groups in the villages and towns of Ghab Plain, west of Hama, with more than 50 shells and missiles,” field sources told North Press.

Shelling the villages of Ghab Plain came hours after the Syrian opposition groups repelled an infiltration attempt by the government forces in the al-Mashari’ areas, west of Hama, and managed to kill several members of the attacking forces.

In Idlib, the government forces continued their artillery shelling on the towns of Kansafra, al-Fatira, Benin and Bazabur in Zawiya Mountain, south of the governorate, without reports of casualties.

The de-escalation areas have been witnessing a military escalation by the Syrian government forces and opposition groups, after a relative calm that the region witnessed for days.
