The Syrian Army is pressing ahead with its operations to confront and expel foreign-backed terrorists from the country's north and northwestern provinces. Reports on the ground say that the Syrian military backed by the Russian Air Force struck the terror groups in villages of Hazarin and Al-Raqeya in the southern countryside of the province of Idlib. Airstrikes also targeted positions of Al-Nusra Front Terror Group around Khan Sheikhoun south of Idlib and Morek in the northern countryside of Hama. The Syrian military says it has reinforced its defense lines with various means of fire, personnel and equipment in areas where clashes are underway with the terrorists. The army also says it's managed to secure a number of areas including Ma'ardis. According to the Syrian media, nearly terrorists have been killed in three days of fighting. Clashes between the army and the terrorists erupted after attack theory groups, including al-Nusra Front, launched a surprise attack on northern and northwestern parts of Syria on Wednesday.

And reactions and condemnations continue pouring in over the resurgence of foreign-backed terrorism in Syria. The Arab League has issued a statement stressing the need to respect the sovereignty and preserve the territorial integrity of Syria. League Secretary General Ahmed Abu Ghait expressed concerns over the continuous developments that Syria is witnessing and their impacts on civilians. In a phone call, the UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan said the country stands with Syria and supports it in combating terrorism and unifying its territory. The Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudanian and Foreign Minister Fouad Hussein expressed their country's support, saying that Syria's security and stability are linked to Iraq's national security. In a statement, the Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yivan Gil expressed country solidarity with the Syrian people and government, calling on the international community to condemn terrorist attacks in Syria.

And now joining us at Saidiya, Morocco, is Dr. Kevin Barrett, editor at Veterans Today. Pleasure to have you on, Dr. Barrett. I hope you're safe and doing well. What are we to make sure of this resurgence of terrorism in Syria, their objectives and their backers?

Well, the first question is, why now? The timing is crucial to understanding what's going on. And it's obviously not a coincidence that this happened at exactly the same moment that the genocidal Zionist occupation entity is changing its focus from its unsuccessful war on Lebanon, in which it was forced to accept essentially a defeat, to a war on Syria. It's now trying to take out the Lebanese people's ability to defend themselves, which they did so successfully, by going into Syria and attacking Syria and trying to cut off any means that supporters of Lebanese independence will be able to use to help ensure that Hezbollah and the patriotic forces in Lebanon will be able to continue to defend themselves successfully in the future.

So the Zionist entity attacked Syria. And at the same moment, these takfiri terrorists who are armed and supported by the Zionist entity's backers in Washington, D.C., also attacked Syria. Clearly, this is a coordinated operation. It's not only a response to the Zionists' loss in their war on Lebanon, but it's also an attempt to bring back the divide and conquer strategy to try to do something about the success that Chinese-backed and to some extent Russian-backed diplomacy has
