Russian Air Force issues powerful response to jihadists attacking Shia villages in Idlib


The Russin Air Force issued a powerful response to the jihadist rebels responsible for the constant attacks on Kafraya and Al-Fou'aa, carrying out several airstrikes around these two Shi'i villages in the Idlib Governorate.

According to a military source in Damascus, the Russian Air Force attacked the jihadist rebels at Ma'arat Misreen, Binnish, and Idlib City on Saturday, killing and wounding several militants from Jaysh Al-Fateh (Army of Conquest).

Ma'arat Misreen and Binnish are two villages where Jaysh Al-Fateh launches their attacks against the residents of Al-Fou'aa and Kafraya from in the Idlib Governorate.

Due to the recent influx of casualties in Al-Fou'aa and Kafraya, the Russian military took it upon themselves to deliver several airstrikes over the jihadist rebel positions in rural Idlib; this attack was meant to warn them against anymore unprovoked attacks against civilians.
