The alliance of Islamist groups, including al-Qaeda wing the Nusra Front, has taken control of Buthaina and Biout Abdulhai checkpoints in al-Arbaeen Mount east of Ariha.
Rebels also have launched an attack on al- Qayyasat camp near the international roadthat links to Latakia province. Fatah Army fighters seek to cut the supply route connect Bashar al-Assad's forces with the strategic town of Ariha and al-Mastouma camp, the reporter said.
Since Thursday, Idlib rebels have engaged in heavy fighting on the enclaves of Latakia province in areas close to al-Assad's ancestral home, the army and rebels said.

In response, Syrian air force has continued the fiercest aerial campaign on Idlib countryside. 5 people were killed in al-Hamidiya village and 40 others wounded in bbarrel-bomb attack Monday.
