Conflicts between the Assad regime and opposition groups continue in the Aleppo and Idlib provinces. Recently, Russia's airstrikes and the Syrian regime's ground attacks on the Idlib region, which borders Turkey, have intensified. Russia claimed that the Syrian regime forces and militia groups conducted military operations to prevent a possible operation by the opposition in Idlib, located in the north of the country. 100 PEOPLE HAVE DIEDHowever, the increasing civilian casualties in the region contradicted these claims, and tensions escalated further. For three days, clashes have been ongoing between the Bashar al-Assad regime and the opposition armed group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) in the Aleppo and Idlib provinces. Nearly 100 people have lost their lives in the clashes, including 39 regime soldiers and 44 opposition fighters. As a result of the recent attacks by Syrian regime forces and militias on Idlib, over 40 civilians have lost their lives, and more than 100 people have been injured. Most recently, in an attack on a Quran course, three children lost their lives, and dozens of children were injured, some seriously. LIMITED OPERATION TOWARDS ALEPPOSome groups in the Idlib region have expressed the possibility of launching operations to push Syrian regime forces and militia groups away from the front lines. This operation aims to remove regime forces from the region and prevent harm to civilians. Turkey has prevented opposition operations to avoid escalating tensions. However, following the recent attacks, Syrian opposition groups initiated a limited operation towards Aleppo in response to the areas from which the fire was coming. This operation, initially planned to be limited, expanded as regime elements began to withdraw from the areas they occupied. The primary goal of this operation, which is advancing towards Aleppo, is to reach the borders of the Idlib de-escalation zone (IDZ) agreed upon in 2019. The operation continues within the eastern region of the borders agreed upon by Turkey, Iran, and Russia in 2019. Opposition forces have taken control of an area of 400 square kilometers, reaching within one kilometer of the outer neighborhoods of Aleppo city. The opposition groups also attacked the Aleppo Neyrab Military Airport with drones in the early hours of the day, destroying one helicopter. COMMANDER OF THE REVOLUTIONARY GUARDS KILLEDAccording to local sources, it was reported that nearly 100 people lost their lives in the clashes, including 44 opposition fighters and 39 regime soldiers. It was reported that Brigadier General Keyumers Purhasimi, one of the commanders of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, was killed in an attack by Syrian opposition forces in western Aleppo. According to the semi-official Tasnim News Agency, known for its closeness to the Revolutionary Guards, Brigadier General Purhasimi, described as a "military advisor," was killed in the attack by Syrian opposition forces near Aleppo. The opposition groups captured a total of 56 villages controlled by the Assad regime during the clashes. Armed groups that took control of 32 villages and points in western Aleppo also captured 24 more villages yesterday. Heavy weapons and military vehicles belonging to the Assad regime were also seized in the regions. While many regime soldiers were killed in the clashes, HTS also captured dozens of regime soldiers. Approximately 10,000 civilians fleeing the clashes sought refuge in the rural areas of Idlib. In an attack by Russian warplanes on the Daret Izze and Atarib districts in the west of Aleppo province, 12 civilians were killed, and at least 30 civilians were injured.
