Turkish troops were acting inside “combat units” with jihadist militants in Idlib province when they were targeted by a Syrian government airstrike on Thursday, Russia’s Defense Ministry said. | |
The airstrike happened when the Syrian Army was repelling a large-scale offensive by a terrorist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), an offshoot of al-Qaeda in Syria, inside the Idlib ‘de-escalation zone’, the Russian military said on Friday. | |
The Defense Ministry said that the Russian Reconciliation Center for Syria was in constant contact with Ankara, “regularly” requesting and receiving information on the whereabouts of Turkish troops. And, according to the data submitted by Turkey, there were no Turkish soldiers near Behun when the Syrian Army was fighting terrorists there. | |
