"The militants are constantly trying to penetrate key military positions in order to prevent the implementation of the agreement reached in Sochi on the formation of a demilitarized zone," the source told Sputnik.

Accordingly, the rebel group tried to advance from Tall Şakhr and Janabir villages to army posts in Breidj military base and al-Mughira village.

"The army retaliated against these attack attempts on Thursday, the terrorist group also suffered heavy losses," the source said.

In September, the defense ministers of Russia and Türkiye signed a memorandum on stabilizing the situation in the escalating Idlib region and agreed to create a demilitarized zone in the area.
