Syrian Army to launch surgical strikes against armed groups in Aleppo

In an interview for Al Mayadeen, writer and political analyst Mouhanad al-Hajj Ali revealed that the Syrian Army is gearing up for a decisive counterattack in northwest Syria, targeting terrorist factions entrenched in Idlib and surrounding areas. According to al-Hajj Ali, the operation seeks to secure Aleppo, Syria's commercial hub, while minimizing harm to civilians and infrastructure. He further disclosed that over 60% of the militants advancing from Idlib are foreign fighters using propaganda tactics to sway public perception.
