The terrorist groups suffered a large number of casualties and its military hardware sustained major damage.
Meantime, the Syrian army continued its military advances in other parts of Syria over the past 24 hours.
Tens of terrorists were killed and dozens more were injured during the Syrian army's operations in provinces across Syria.
Hama
The Syrian Army's artillery and missile units opened heavy fire at the movements and positions of the terrorists deployed in the demilitarized zone in Northern Hama on Tuesday, preempting their impending offensive.
The artillery and missile units, stationed in the villages of al-Hamamiyat and Bridij North of the small town of Mahradah, pounded the movements of a group of terrorists in Tal al-Sakhar, preempting their attack.
The terrorist groups suffered a large number of casualties and its military hardware sustained major damage.
The remaining pockets of the terrorists retreated from the under-fire region.
The terrorists' refusal to implement the Sochi Agreement to establish a demilitarized zone is pushing the army to initiate its long-waited assault on militants in Idlib that had been put on hold due to the Sochi Agreement.
Colonel Mar'ei Hamdan, a Syrian military expert, was quoted by the Arabic-language website of Sputnik news agency as saying last month that Tahrir al-Sham Hay'at (the Levant Liberation Board or the Al-Nusra Front) is in control of nearly 70% of towns and villages in Idlib province and makes provocative moves against the Syrian army, adding that the army's commitment to decrease tensions is not lasting forever.
He added that the Syrian army has so far repelled all attacks by terrorists against its positions and inflicted heavy damages on them, noting that the army is now necessitated to come out of the defensive mood to retake control of Idlib.
According to Fars News Agancy, Hamdan said that Tahrir al-Sham will resort to a full-scale military operation against the Syrian and Russian armies soon, after rejecting the Sochi agreement last October, which leaves no room for ceasefire or disarmament anymore, and underlined that the Syrian army's battle against Tahrir al-Sham is inevitable.
Meantime, the Turkey-backed Ahrar al-Sham and National Liberation Front (NLF) terrorist groups has also dismissed the Russian-Turkish Sochi agreement and is preparing for military operations against the army in Northern Syria, calling for a coalition with Tahrir al-Sham.
Tahrir al-Sham and other allied terrorist groups have not left the demilitarized zone two months after the Sochi agreement and have instead reinvigorated their strongholds and targeted the army positions every day.
Deir Ezzur
The US-led coalition fighter jets bombed units of the allied Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in a blue on green airstrike in Southeastern Deir Ezzur, an Arab media outlet reported on Tuesday.
Al-Watan online quoted local sources as reporting that the warplanes targeted SDF positions in Hajin hospital in Southeastern Deir Ezzur.
It further said that the bombardment was allegedly launched to repel an ISIL attack on the hospital, adding that at least 15 SDF gunmen were injured in the air raid.

The Turkish convoy, including a number of vehicles and a large volume of military hardware, entered the border town of Aqjah Qal'ah.
