The Russian center was quoted by the Arabic-language al-Watan daily as saying
that the center has received a number of calls by Idlib's elites and senior
officials, demanding for the surrender of militant-held regions in the
Northwestern province to the army.
Al-Watan further said that senior officials in Idlib have also called for
government amnesty.
The Russian center further said that a large-scale popular uprising is now
very much likely to happen in Idlib, adding that as soon as the army forces
arrive at Idlib border the civilian population will certainly join them.
Meanwhile, Abdullah Muhammad al-Muhaysini, the former commander of Tahrir
al-Sham Hay'at (the Levant Liberation Board or the Al-Nusra Front), also
cautioned on Wednesday against the growing number of the militants asking for
the endorsement of the peace plan in Northern Syria, calling for their trial and
punishment.
Also, Abdolrazaq al-Mahdi, the Mufti (religious leader) of another terrorist
group in Northern Syria, warned of the dire situation in Northern Syria, calling
on the militants to unite to stand against the Syrian army's imminent operations
in the region.
The Syrian army will soon start military operations in Idlib after fully
cleansing Southern Syria of terrorists, reports said.
Relevant reports said on Wednesday that differences and feuds are increasing
among the non-Syrian members of Tahrir al-Sham Hay'at, known as al-Turkistani
Party, in Northern Syria amid reports on the Syrian Army's imminent operation in
the province.
Militant-affiliated websites disclosed that a fresh wave of defections has been
reported among the foreign members of Tahrir al-Sham, known as al-Turkistani
Party.
The websites further said that Abu Mohammad Mansour, one of the commanders of
al-Turkistani, has seized leadership of the terrorist group in a coup against
al-Turkistani's former commander Abu Ibrahim.
In the meantime, a large number of terrorists were killed in heavy fighting
between ISIL and Horas al-Din along a road to the village of Hafsarja in
Northwestern Idlib.
Field sources said that 220 terrorists, including 144 Syrians affiliated to
Tahrir al-Sham Hay'at and other groups, have been killed in Idlib province since
April 26.
