Al-Arab: “Guardians of Religion” embarrasses al-Golani by targeting the Syrian army

The Arab newspapers issued this morning dealt with several issues in the Syrian issue, the most prominent of which was the attack by mercenaries in Idlib against government forces. In this context, Al-Arab newspaper said, "At least 22 elements of the Syrian forces and jihadist factions, most notably the militant organization" Guardians of Religion "were killed during clashes in northwestern Syria, despite the ceasefire two months ago.

Idlib and parts of neighboring provinces have been subject to a ceasefire agreement since the sixth of March, followed by a massive attack launched by the Syrian forces with Russian support, which pushed nearly a million people from their areas.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights SOHR reported that "15 members of the Syrian government forces and gunmen loyal to them were killed, compared to seven elements of the organization" Guardians of Religion "and jihadist groups, as a result of violent clashes in al-Ghab Plain area in the northwestern Hama countryside.

This death toll is "the highest since the truce took effect", according to the observatory director Rami Abdel Rahman, who explained that "the clashes erupted after midnight after the factions attacked the positions of the regime forces," and observers say that the attack of the Guardians of Religion comes in an attempt to relieve pressure on it and an endeavor to turn the table on the HTS, which escalated against the organization in what seemed to want him to scapegoat, in exchange for the HTS maintaining its presence in the region.

Since the truce declared by Moscow in support of Damascus and Ankara in support of the factions, the region has witnessed intermittent clashes and mutual shelling between the two parties, but the current battles are the "fiercest".
