Hayat Tahrir al-Sham leader seeks more popular support in Syria's Idlib
Hayat Tahrir al-Sham leader Abu Mohammed al-Golani has recently visited the Jabal al-Zawiya area in Idlib upon an invitation by locals, to stress his organization’s ongoing support for the town.
The leader of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), Abu Mohammed al-Golani, has recently visited the town of Ariha, which lies on the key M4 highway in the southern countryside of Idlib in northwest Syria, and met with a number of local dignitaries in the town and its affiliated villages in the Jabal al-Zawiya area.
On March 24, Golani appeared in a video recording published by the HTS-affiliated Amjad Media Foundation, wearing an Arab cloak that was offered to him by the locals.
Golani is heard saying in the video that the visit came upon the invitation of the residents of Ariha and Jabal al-Zawiya.
He also highlighted the services that were implemented in the area, which is under HTS control, and noted that these services are the least that can be provided for the steadfastness of the residents of the Jabal al-Zawiya areas near the frontlines with the Syrian government forces.
