Ivan Abakomov, in Fazglyad, wrote about Erdogan‘s need to recover the yoke, to delude Turkey‘s agents that he was not betraying them, and the fact that he was pushing them into a massacre to get rid of their burden.
The article said: The assistant professor at the Finance University of the Russian government, Geoffrey Mirzayan, said: “At the present time, there is no official confirmation of information that the Syrian forces have already withdrawn from the town of Neirab. There is news from sources close to the fighters. ”
Mirzayan added: “Neirab does not have strategic importance, but it has great moral importance for the fighters, who need, against the backdrop of the success of the Syrian army to show that they can recover at least some of the land.”
And for Turkey, the Neirab is a symbol of support for its fighters, who must not be disappointed in Erdogan. In addition, the control of Neirab would allow the blockade to be removed from one of the Turkish observation points. Thus, Erdogan will show that he is interested in his soldiers, who are at the back of the Syrian army.
Mirzayan concluded: “However, there is another reading of what is happening. Now, illegal armed groups are extensively eliminated by the Syrian army and the Russian air force. Realizing that it is imperative to hand over Idlib, Ankara is disposing of the fighters it no longer needs. There are many of them, and it is difficult to send everyone to Libya, so it is profitable for Erdogan to throw them to the slaughter. ”
As previously announced, gunmen in the so-called Syrian opposition seized the town of Neirab, in the south of Idlib governorate. According to the Anadolu Agency, opposition fighters “took full control of the town.”
On Monday, the forces of Turkey, with the support of the Turkish Armed Forces, launched an attack on the location of the Syrian Arab Army in Idlib. However, it was later reported that, with the support of artillery and aviation, the Syrian forces repelled Turkey‘s guerrilla attacks on Nairab, and that the terrorists, after incurring heavy losses, fled to the depth of the lands they had previously occupied in Idlib.
