The governor added: “In parallel with the return of the people to the city of Maarat al-Numan, the work of rebuilding the infrastructure and service facilities will be launched in the city, which was subjected during the last period to extensive sabotage by armed terrorist groups, before it was defeated by the Syrian Arab Army.”

It is noteworthy that the cities of Maarat al-Numan, Khan Sheikhoun and many other towns and villages in the southern countryside of Idlib were liberated from terrorism by the Syrian Arab Army, about two years ago.
