Turkish Attacks Won’t Succeed In Protecting Terrorism, Halting Syrian Army Ops – Statement

By Staff, Agencies

The Syrian Army Command said in a statement that the Turkish attacks will not succeed in protecting terrorism nor will they dissuade the army from continuing its operations in Idlib province and in the west of Aleppo to cleanse them of terrorism in all its forms and to restore security and stability to all areas across the country.

The statement added that the Turkish regime continues to escalate its aggressive acts and transgressions upon Syrian geography in violation of international law and the concept of the sovereignty of independent states in an attempt to halt the advance of the Syrian Army and to prevent the fall of terrorist groups in Idlib and west of Aleppo.

The Turkish regime has deployed new military forces and escalated its aggression intensively, targeting areas populated by civilians and positions of the army units with rocket shells to help the terrorists maintain control over territory, keep using civilians as human shields, and carry out systematic crimes and vandalism, the statement noted.

It further stressed that the Syrian Army will continue carrying out its constitutional and national duties, and they are ready to respond to the Turkish occupation’s attacks and defend the safety of the country and its people.
