According to a military source in nearby Lattakia, the air force relentlessly bombarded the bases of Tahrir Al-Sham Hay'at and the Turkestan Islamic Party (TIP) in Jisr Al-Shughour District of Idlib, the AMN reported.
The airstrikes, which are still ongoing, were conducted in retaliation for the latest armed drone attack on the Russian Humeimim Airbase in Southwest Lattakia.
According to some pro-government activists, the Russian jets carried out the strikes after allegedly taking off from the Abu Dhohour Military Airport for the first time ever.
There has been no military confirmation to corroborate these claims; however, the Russian military does maintain a large presence in Southern Idlib.
Furthermore, the Russian military currently has an observation post in the town of Abu Dhohour, so it would not be out of the realm of possibility for them to utilize this base.
