Russia steps up airstrikes over southern Idlib in Syria

The Russian Aerospace Forces have recently stepped up their air campaign over the Idlib Governorate, targeting several areas under the control of Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham, Al-Masdar News says.

In particular, the Russian Aerospace Forces have increased their airstrikes over the southern countryside of Idlib; this region is filled with Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham militants.

On Tuesday, March 27 night, the Russian Aerospace Forces carried out several airstrikes over the rural region of Idlib, destroying a large Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham base inside the town of Al-Naqeer.

Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham recently took over Al-Naqeer in southern Idlib so that their forces could store their large arsenal of weapons inside the town’s supply depots.

Below is a video released by pro-opposition channels that shows the Russian airstrikes over Al-Naqeer:
