The Syrian army command has deployed unmanned aerial vehicles to strike at the positions held by gangs in Idlib province. This was reported by the newspaper Al Watan, citing a source within the Defense Ministry of the Arab Republic.
According to the report, the airstrikes targeted outposts belonging to the extremist group Jabhat al-Nusra (banned in Russia) and its allies, in response to repeated attacks by militants on populated areas under the protection of government forces.
The strikes focused on command centers and strongholds located in Afs, Benin, Deir Sunbul, Kensarf, and Ruweiha, resulting in casualties among the enemy in terms of both killed and wounded.
Additionally, Syrian troop artillery units opened fire on the rear bases of the gangs situated in the mountainous regions of Jabal al-Zawiya in the south of Idlib and Jabal Akrad in the north of Latakia, resulting in the destruction of weapons depots and military equipment.
In the eastern part of the country, army units, along with militias, responded to attacks by the terrorist organization "Islamic State" (IS, banned in Russia). Dozens of militants were eliminated during the operation to pursue IS gangs near Palmyra, albeit at the cost of three Syrian servicemen's lives.
Since the beginning of March, over 30 individuals have fallen victim to terrorist massacres in the eastern regions of Syria.
