عدة طائرات مروحية تحلق في سماء منطقة باريشا بريف إدلب الشمالي على الحدود التركية السورية وتقوم باستهداف المنطقة بالرشاشات الثقيلة، وسط إطلاق نار من مضادات أرضية للتصدي لتلك المروحيات، دون ورود معلومات عن تبعية هذه المروحيات أو طبيعة العملية التي تنفذها في المنطقة. pic.twitter.com/KJlPKkZN8n
The Washington Post’s Josh Rogin commented, “This seems to relate to the raid in northern Idlib, Syria where U.S. led coalition forces were pursuing a high value terrorist target. No confirmation yet, some chatter it could be Baghdadi.”
