Smoke rises as Syrian army and jihadists exchange fire in Idlib province

Smoke rises and explosions ring out as Syrian army and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) fighters and allied groups exchange fire in the worst conflict in years in the country’s northwest, seen from Ariha on the outskirts of Idlib’s Saraqeb. HTS, led by al-Qaeda’s former Syrian branch, controls large areas of northwestern Idlib and small parts of neighboring Aleppo, Hama and Latakia provinces. IMAGES
