The terrorists of Jeish al-Fatah, deployed in the Northeastern part of Latakia near border with Idlib province, violated the ceasefire and stormed the Syrian government forces' strongholds near Kinsibba, but their attacks were fended off by the army.

The heavy missile and artillery shelling the terrorists by the Syrian army forced Jeish al-Fatah to pull its militants back from Ruweisat al-Malek and Nahshaba hill and the army retook full control over them in a rapid counter attack.

Jeish al-Fatah suffered a heavy death after its members were caught in the Syrian army's traps.

At least four terrorist were captured by the government forces too.

Reports said earlier today that the Russian Ka-52 “Alligator” combat helicopters arrived at Humaymim Military Airbase in Jableh, in the coastal province of Latakia to join the war against terrorism in Syria.

"The Russian manufactured choppers that are highly regarded for their durability and effectiveness during reconnaissance missions are in the Syrian land to reinvigorate combat capabilities of the Syrian army and its allies in fight again the terrorist groups," sources said.

According to russianhelicopters.com, “the Ka-52 Alligator is a next-generation reconnaissance and combat helicopter designed to destroy tanks, armored and non-armored ground targets, and enemy troops and helicopters both on the front line and in tactical reserves.

The helicopter can operate around the clock and in all weathers. The Ka-52 can provide target acquisition and designation for helicopter teams and ground troop command and control centers.
