According to Abdel Rahman, Russian soldiers, which assist Syrian President Bashar al-administration, Assad’s were responding to rebel drone strikes over the past week that killed four people, including two children.

Damascus has reclaimed much of the terrain lost in the early phases of Syria’s conflict, which erupted in 2011 when the government ruthlessly crushed pro-democracy protesters.

Large swaths of Idlib province, as well as parts of neighbouring Aleppo, Hama, and Latakia provinces, form the last bastion of armed opposition to the regime.

The largest group in the area is Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, which is led by ex-members of Syria’s previous Al-Qaeda affiliate, but other rebel factions are also active there with varied degrees of Turkish support.

Syria’s war has killed over 500,000 people and displaced over half of the country’s pre-war population.
