Damascus, November 7 (Prensa Latina) A site where terrorist groups’ unmanned aerial vehicles are stored was destroyed today by Syrian and Russian forces in the northwest of this country, military sources reported.
According to Admiral Vladimir Kolet, deputy head of the Russian coordination center at the Hemeimen base in Syria’s coastal Latakia province, the military operation took place in the town of Jiftlik-Al-Shaghar in the northern Idlib province. Other bombings destroyed terrorist headquarters and barracks.
On the other hand, the official explained that the warplanes of the so-called “International Coalition” led by the US continue to create dangerous situations by conducting flights that violate Syrian airspace.
He revealed that in the last 24 hours, 10 violations were recorded in the Al-Tanf area in eastern Syria, where F-15 and F-16 fighter jets as well as C-1-QM multi-role drones had flown over, posing threats to the region led flight safety.
Moscow and Damascus increased their attacks on targets of extremist groups, escalating their missile and drone attacks against civilian communities and military positions.
These operations destroyed radical camps, hideouts, warehouses and drone manufacturing workshops.
The National Army managed to liberate 56 percent of Idlib in operations in 2020, but the radicals still control less than half, where they hold hundreds of thousands of civilians as human shields.
At Damascus’s request, Russia sent troops to Syria in 2015 to help fight terrorism, concentrated mainly at the Hemeimem air base and the Tartous naval base in the eastern Mediterranean.
