After 48 hours of bloody fighting, the jihadists of Al-Nusra Front seized on Monday, a base of the Syrian army in the north-west. Islamist insurgents were trying to take this military complex since 2011.

It took them 48 hours to take control of the premises. Monday, December 15, Islamist fighters of Al-Nusra Front , the local branch of al-Qaeda, have taken over the military base at Wadi al-Deif, north-western Syria .

Syrian regular forces, which were encircled in the database for two years, had previously managed to counter the attacks. But the attackers managed to bring down one by one the twenty checkpoints arranged around the military complex, before taking full control.

The basis of Wadi al-Deif was fully released after Assad’s forces withdrew from all dams affected by our fighters, said Monday the Al-Nusra Front, which claims to have led the offense and not only with the help of Ahrar al-Sham group, as announced by the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (OSDH), based in London.

According to our information, the senior members of the Syrian army had left the base the day before the attack. Several sources on both sides, evoke dozens of deaths. Dozens of soldiers from the regime of Bashar al-Assad, who could not be evacuated in time, have also been made prisoners.

This decision is an important step forward for Islamist insurgents trying to get hold of that bastion of government forces since 2011. Located near the city of al-Numan Maarrat between Homs and Aleppo, the complex of Wadi al-Deif allows better control the strategic road M5, the main north-south route in the province of Idlib, still in the hands of the regime. Taking the base, the jihadists have also been able to get hold of several armored Syrian army.

For now, the Damascus government has not confirmed the fall of the military complex, a major lock that will be difficult to regain.
