Syrian government troops Wednesday morning repelled three big attacks by militants in Syria's Idlib province, the Russian Ministry of Defense said.
It said in a statement that 500 Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham militants, seven tanks, and about 30 pickups mounted with heavy machine guns had taken part in the attacks.
The ministry said that Syrian militants based in Idlib had also launched a missile attack on Russia's Hmeimim air base Wednesday, but that their missiles were either shot down or did not reach their target.
