Assad regime continues to breach ceasefire in Idlib, Hama countryside

Assad regime's militias shelled the demilitarized zone (DMZ) of Idlib and Hama countryside on Thursday (September 19), causing material damage, violating a ceasefire announced by Russia on the 31st of August, Orient correspondent said.  

Assad artillery shells targeted on Thursday nine villages and towns in Idlib countryside, including Maaret Hurmah, Kansafra, and Kafrnabel with more than 70 shells, causing material damage.

Meanwhile, artillery shells targeted ten villages and towns in Hama countryside, including al-Hawash and al-Hawweeja with more than 70 shells, causing material damage.

On Sunday, a shell of the remnants of Assad shelling exploded in the surrounding of a camp near Baluon village, killing four civilians, including two children.

Assad artillery shells also killed on Sunday a woman and injured a man and two children in Kansafra village.

Assad-Russian warplanes have committed dozens of massacres in Idlib and Hama countryside since they launched their bombing campaign on the 30th of April, largely violating the de-escalation zone deal reached between Russia and Turkey last September.
