Security officers affiliated with Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) assaulted several journalists who were covering a gathering of civilians near Bab al-Hawa crossing with Turkey in the north.
According to Idlib-based media sources who spoke to Al-Monitor, around 400 civilians from the Idlib area in northwest Syria marched Sept. 12 toward the Bab al-Hawa border crossing as part of a “peace caravan” to cross into Europe via Turkey, leaving behind the deteriorating living conditions in Idlib.
