According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, HTS and factions from the al-Fatah al-Mubin operations room attacked Syrian army positions in western rural Aleppo, allegedly seizing control of some points in Qubtan al-Jabal and Sheikh Aqil near the 46th Regiment.
The attack was marked by intense exchanges of artillery and rocket fire between government forces and HTS-aligned factions.
Syrian government forces shelled the rear positions of the factions around the city of Atarib, Darat Izza, and surrounding villages, the observatory said, adding that a Russian warplane also conducted airstrikes.
There were no immediate reports of casualties.
On Tuesday, the western countryside of Aleppo witnessed a significant displacement of civilians from Atarib and nearby villages, driven by HTS military buildups near the front lines, according to the observatory.
Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, formerly the Nusra Front, is considered a terrorist organization by Syria, Russia, and several other countries.
