Airstrikes | Seven Uzbek jihadists killed in drone attack on military post in Jabal Al-Zawiyah

Syrian Observatory activists have documented the death of seven Uzbek jihadists in drone attack on their military post in Sarjeh area in Jabal Al-Zawiyah. It is worth noting that the targeted group is affiliated to Hayyaat Tahrir Al-Sham and known as “Al-Majmou’ah Al-Istish-hadiyah” (the Martyrdom Group). Also, the drone which carried out the attack was a “kamikaze”, as it blew up just after striking the military post. However, it is not known yet if the drone was Russian or affiliated to the Iranian and regime forces.

 

A few hours ago, reliable SOHR sources confirmed that a drone struck a military post where a jihadi group affiliated to Hayyaat Tahrir Al-Sham was stationed in Sarjeh area in Jabal Al-Zawiyah in southern Idlib. It is worth noting that all the jihadists of the targeted group are of non-Syrian nationalities, and confirmed reports suggest there are casualties.

 

SOHR sources reported earlier this morning that Russian fighter jets were flying over Jabal Al-Zawiyah in southern Idlib, executing further airstrikes on the region, bringing the number of airstrikes since morning to 13. The airstrikes hit positions in Shenan, Freka, Sarja, Ihsim, and Bayanin, but no casualties were reported at the time.
