Over the past days, armed terrorist groups affiliated with the so-called "Jabhat al-Nusra" terrorist organization, supported by thousands of foreign terrorists, heavy weaponry, and a large number of drones, launched a wide-scale attack from multiple fronts on the Aleppo and Idlib fronts.
Our armed forces engaged in fierce battles across various points of confrontation along a front line exceeding 100 kilometers to halt their advance. Dozens of our armed forces personnel were martyred in these battles, and others were injured.The large number of terrorists and the multiplicity of confrontation fronts prompted our armed forces to implement a redeployment operation aimed at strengthening defensive lines to absorb the attack, preserve the lives of civilians and soldiers, and prepare for a counteroffensive.
With the continued influx of terrorists across the northern borders and the intensified military and technical support they receive, the terrorist groups managed in the past hours to infiltrate significant parts of Aleppo's neighborhoods. However, they were unable to establish firm positions due to the sustained, concentrated, and powerful strikes by our armed forces, pending the completion of reinforcements and their distribution along the combat axes in preparation for a counteroffensive.
The General Command of the Army and Armed Forces affirms that this measure is temporary and that it will spare no effort to ensure the safety and security of our people in Aleppo. It will continue its operations and fulfill its national duty to combat terrorist organizations, expel them, and restore state control and institutions over the entire city and its countryside.
While repelling the offensive of terrorist groups in Aleppo and Idlib, “dozens of people from our armed forces were killed and some were wounded,” the statement said. Syrian government troops are now redeploying to strengthen their defense lines and prepare for a counter-offensive.
