The Syrian Army repelled an attack by Al-Qaeda-linked terrorists on the town of Al-Milaja in southern Idlib on Saturday, according to Al Mayadeen's correspondent.

The attack was preceded by an explosion which the terrorist set off in a tunnel at the town's outskirts, our correspondent explained.

Al-Qaeda's affiliates also attacked the town of Al-Fatira, which coincided with another attack by Hayat Ahrar Al-Sham (HTS) on the town of Hazarin in southern Idlib.

Our correspondent further confirmed that the militants retreated from their offensive positions after the Syrian Arab Army targeted their supply lines in Al-Fatira and Sufuhon.

However, clashes continue intermittently around the Al-Milaja and Hazarin fronts, with the Syrian Army conducting extensive operations on multiple fronts.

A few days ago, the Russian Center for Reconciliation in Syria announced the death of 17 HTS members in an airstrike on the terrorist group's headquarters in a village in Idlib province.

The Center renewed its call to the leaders of the armed groups to "stop shelling Syrian forces' sites and civilian infrastructure."

The center stressed that "if provocations do not stop," then Russian military strikes "will continue with high precision to eliminate terrorist organizations."

The Russian center's remarks were preceded by a statement made by the Syrian Ministry of Defense, announcing that its forces successfully targeted and destroyed military equipment and weapons used by terrorists in the countryside of Aleppo and Idlib. The ministry added that its forces were able to down several drones equipped with explosives.
