"Militants of radical armed formations block the work of checkpoints, prohibiting local residents from entering the territory controlled by the SAR authorities under the threat of the use of weapons, as well as arrest," RIA Novosti quotes the words of the deputy head of the Russian Center for the Reconciliation of Warring Parties (CPVS) in the SAR, Rear Admiral Vyacheslav Sytnik.

According to him, the Turkish armed forces are unable to ensure the safety of refugees in the exit corridors in Idlib, which aggravates the situation of the civilian population.

Earlier it was reported that terrorists carried out 28 attacks in the Idlib de-escalation zone in Syria.
