Idlib is the last remaining stronghold of militant groups that once sought
to overthrow the Syrian government, with the backing of Turkey, Saudi
Arabia and the West. The dominant force in the province is Hayat Tahrir
as-Sham (HTS), an Al-Qaeda affiliate previously known as Al-Nusra.
Over the past month, the Syrian army has dealt a series of defeats to
the militants, liberating the last occupied suburbs of Aleppo and
unblocking a strategic highway to the coast. Turkey responded by
sending troops and weapons into the province and manning
“observation posts” established under a cease-fire agreed years ago.
Moscow has pointed out that the same deal required Ankara to separate
“moderate” rebels from terrorists, which never happened.
