The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has reported that "hysterical" air strikes are being struck in separate areas in the countryside of Aleppo and Idlib by regime planes and Russia since this morning.

More than 110 air raids targeted the regime's warplanes in the areas of Al-Rashideen, Kafarna, Khan al-Asal, Mansoura, and the Atarib area in the western countryside of Aleppo, Khulsa, Barnah, Khan Tuman, and al-Hamira in the southern Aleppo countryside, Ma`rat al-Numan, Bazabour, Al-Ghadfa, and Ma`shourin, Deir Sharqi, and Maardabsa, Qamhana, Benin, and Masran in Idlib countryside.

Russian aircraft also launched more than 41 strikes since the morning, during which they targeted areas in the town of Hayyan northwest of Aleppo, Bashnarta, Kfardael, Mansoura, and the 46th regiment, and Bishqatin, and the vicinity of the Atarib, Kafarna, and Al-Rashideen west of Aleppo, and Khan Tuman in the southern countryside of Aleppo, in addition to Khan Al-Sabil , Deir Sunbul, Sarjeh, and Sheikh Idris in Idlib countryside, also, regime helicopters dropped 29 barrel bombs on Khan Tuman, Khulsa, southern Aleppo countryside, Mansoura west of Aleppo, and Ma`rat al-Numan and its outskirts, Kfaroma, and the monastery east of Idlib countryside.

While dozens of warplanes and helicopters took turns in the bombing, amid continued takeoffs of the aircraft since the morning from the airports (Hmeimim - Jeb Ramleh - Neirab - Kweres - Al Shaerat - Seine - Tefur).

Sources spoke that Turkey met two days ago with its mercenaries in Idlib, and informed them that it could not persuade Russia to stop the military operation.

These developments come after the meeting of Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Turkey, and this was followed by Russia and Turkey announcing a truce that did not hold much.

Sources close to the regime also spoke that the latter was preparing for a military battle in the western countryside of Aleppo, amidst the introduction of military reinforcements to the area.
