Terrorists run and hide from Russian Airstrikes in Idlib

The Jeish al-Fatah coalition of terrorist groups has ordered its affiliated groups to leave their bases and positions and hide in remote regions in Northwestern Idlib province to evade more casualties in Russian airstrikes, battlefield sources disclosed on Friday.

"In a statement, Jeish al-Fatah urged its members to empty all bases and checkpoints in Idlib, in order to prevent more death toll in Russian air attacks," the sources said, adding, "The recent massive air attacks carried out by the Russian Air Force have inflicted major losses on the Harakat Ahrar al-Sham in Western Idlib, and this has prompted the militant groups to take the necessary precautions in order to evade casualties and limit destructions."

Last week, a number of field commanders of the al-Qaeda-affiliated al-Nusra Front, including non-Syrians, were killed in a bomb attack near a mosque in the terrorist-held city of Idlib, Northwestern Syria.

Tens of al-Nusra commanders and their guards, mostly with Uzbek nationality, were killed and many more were wounded in explosion of a bomb-laden car near Sho'ayb mosque in al-Dhabit district of Idlib city.

In the meantime, the Syrian fighter jets targeted the base and gatherings of al-Nusra in Khan Sheikhoun, Kafr Awid near Zawiyeh mountain and in surroundings of Ariha which ended in the killing or wounding of dozens of the militants.

In addition to al-Nusra members, three civilians were killed and 30 others were wounded in the blast.
