The Operations Administration" factions of the Syrian opposition continued their advance in Aleppo province, successfully entering the city on Sunday and controlling large portions of its neighborhoods over the past two days.

The "Military Operations Administration" announced through its official channels that it had succeeded in taking control of the military academy in Aleppo, as well as the military colleges in the Ramousa area south of the city, in addition to seizing the industrial city in Sheikh Najjar.

In related developments, the Syrian National Army began military operations towards the city of Tal Rifaat under the "Dawn of Freedom" operation, which is controlled by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in northern Aleppo, according to exclusive sources for Syria TV.

The Syrian opposition factions reached the outskirts of Hama city on Saturday evening after gaining control over extensive areas of the northern countryside, completing their takeover of Idlib province, western Aleppo countryside, and large parts of Aleppo city as part of the "Deterrence of Aggression" operation launched by the "Military Operations Administration" early last Wednesday.

Exclusive sources for Syria TV reported that opposition factions entered the Al-Arbaeen neighborhood in Hama city, motivated by a morale collapse within regime forces, leading to the withdrawal of heavy machinery and tanks from the northern entrances of the city.

Earlier, the factions succeeded in retaking the city of Khan Sheikhoun in southern Idlib before moving on to the surrounding villages and areas in Hama countryside, including: Taibah al-Imam, Kafr Zita, Kafr Nabuda, Halfaya, Latamna, Souran, Qalaat al-Mudiq, Kurnaz, Maardes, Al-Hamamiat, and Tarmala. They also managed to take control of the strategic town of Morek, located on the international Aleppo-Damascus road (M5).
