The Syrian Defense Ministry confirmed on Sunday that Syrian Army units thwarted an attack by a terrorist organization in Aleppo's western countryside, inflicting heavy losses in personnel and equipment upon the terrorists.
The Ministry indicated that army units destroyed an armed vehicle used by the terrorists to launch missiles.
It also noted that Syrian Army units thwarted a terrorist drone attack that attempted to target safe civilian areas and some military points in the Idlib countryside with two drones.
On Saturday, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that the Syrian Army is facing one of the most violent attacks by Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS) terrorists in the northern countryside of Aleppo.
The Syrian Army is expanding its range of fire to include the supply lines of HTS terrorists in the vicinity of Sarmin, Idlib, our correspondent added.
The terrorist groups are attempting to regain positions that the Syrian Army had advanced to during its previous defense against an attack by Turkistan Islamic Party militants on the Kafr Taal front last week.
Our correspondent further stated that "intensive artillery and missile shelling by the Syrian Arab Army is targeting the militants' positions around the villages of Kafr Taal and Kafr Amma."
