IDLIB, Syria (AA) - In a Monday attack by the Bashar al-Assad regime in northwestern Syria, one civilian was killed and four were injured, said local sources.

The regime army, stationed in Saraqib, Idlib, along with Iranian-backed foreign terrorist groups, launched an attack on the village of Sarmin using ground-to-ground weapons.

According to information from civilian defense sources, one civilian was killed in the attack and four were injured.

The wounded were taken to hospitals.


- Idlib

In a 2017 meeting, Türkiye, Russia, and Iran decided to establish four de-escalation zones in areas not under the control of the Syrian government.

Despite this agreement, the Assad regime, supported by Iranian-backed militants and Russia, continued attacks, seizing three of the four designated zones and turning its focus towards Idlib.

While Türkiye and Russia reached an additional agreement in September 2018 to reinforce the cease-fire, attacks escalated again in May 2019.

Following a new agreement between Türkiye and Russia in March 2020, the ceasefire has largely held.

Between 2017 and 2020, approximately 2 million civilians fleeing attacks were forced to migrate to areas near the Turkish border.
