18 villages in Idlib return to the Syrian authorities: What about the rest of the city?

The attacks by the Syrian army on the city of
Idlib over the past month have resulted in state control of 18 villages so far
in the city, which has been under the control of terrorist militias for years.
According to the data of the scene, military
operations in Idlib are heading towards continuity for an unknown period, after
Turkey failed to persuade Russia to stop operations, while people close to the
Syrian state published pledges that the fighting continues until the liberation
of Idlib in full.
Although this information is not confirmed,
Syrian activist Omar Rahmoun reported in previous statements to the Reference
that the confrontations in Idlib will continue until any presence of the
factions ends there.
Idlib is the last stronghold of armed militias
backed by Turkey, in Syria, where the largest gathering of militias gathered
after the factions carried out the deportation of its elements from the areas
of their deployment to Idlib.
The difficulty in liberating the city is that
all factions are united in one place, along with the 3 million civilian
population that warns civil society organizations of the damage they will
suffer during the liberation process.
Villages and their importance
According to Syrian newspapers, the Syrian
army has managed to control them so far in Idlib. They are: Jannabra, Tal
Othman, Gabriya, Tall Hawash, Tueh, Shaikh Idris, Kafarbanda, Qal'at al-Madiq,
Twainah, Shariah, Bab Taqa, Al-Hawiz, immigrants, Al-Karkat, Al-Mustaiha,
Khalidi and Hardani.
In a report published by the Syrian
Observatory for Human Rights, the choice of these cities specifically reveals
the intentions of the Syrian state with regard to Idlib. He said that these
cities will allow the Syrian army to open new fronts in the city while ensuring
that it remains in place of force.
The report pointed out that the army is now
preparing to expand. He pointed out that even if no significant expansionary
steps were taken, keeping these cities under its hands would help it whenever
it intended to start its major moves.
However, political researcher Mohammed Faraj
Abu Nur did not agree with this saying, saying that the major battle in
question has not yet started and all that is happening today is a prelude,
considering that the military solution is inevitable in Idlib, but it needs
arrangements and the international arena.
