Syrian rebels will complete the heavy weapons withdrawal from the Idlib area on Monday: Anadolu





ISTANBUL (Reuters) - Syrian rebel groups will complete the withdrawal of heavy weapons from a demilitarized zone agreed by Turkey and Russia in northwest Idlib, Syria, state news agency Anadolu said. 

Under an agreement agreed last month between Turkey and Syria's chief ally, Bashar al-Assad, Moscow, rebels considered radicals must withdraw from the area by mid-month and heavy weapons must be withdrawn before October 10. 

The rebel alliance of the National Front for the Liberation (NFL) backed by Turkey said on Saturday that the process of withdrawal of heavy weapons had begun. 

Turkish broadcaster NTV said on Monday that a large part of the mortars, artillery and missile ramps in the area had already been removed.  

Other Syrian rebels must remain inside the demilitarized zone to help Turkish troops monitor and patrol the area, the NFL said. 

The Turkey-Russia agreement stopped an offensive threat from the Syrian government. The United Nations had warned that such an attack would create a humanitarian catastrophe in the Idlib region, home to some three million people. 

The main jihadist group in the Idlib area, Tahrir al-Sham, has yet to say whether it will comply with the agreement.
