According to him, during the retreat of the militants deep into Idlib, “a significant amount of equipment, ammunition and weapons left by illegal armed groups, including Western ones, fell into the hands of the military " .

As emphasized in the CPVS, this speaks of a “powerful combat potential of terrorists”, which could fall upon such densely populated cities as Hama and Aleppo.

Earlier it was reported that the army of the SAR during the counteroffensive in Idlib captured and destroyed more than 100 units of military equipment.
