叙利亚基地组织及其盟友在叙利亚历时4年的冲突中第一次攻占西北部城市伊德利卜。
叙利亚恐怖组织“胜利阵线”率领其它伊斯兰激进武装在四天战斗之后占领了伊德利卜。
“胜利阵线”通过社交媒体宣布了攻占这座城市的消息。
叙利亚官方的通讯社没有报道伊德利卜失陷的消息，只是说为控制这座城市的政府军在进行激烈的战斗。
伊德利卜是叙利亚总统阿萨德的军队在4年冲突中失守的第二个省份首府和大城市。
东北部城市拉卡2013年被包括“胜利阵线”在内的反政府武装攻占。
A Syrian al-Qaida group and its allies have seized the Syrian city of Idlib for the first time in the country's four-year conflict.
The al-Nusra Front led other Islamic groups in Saturday's takeover following four days of fighting. The al-Nusra Front announced the capture of the northwestern Syrian city through social media.
Syria's official news agency did not report Idlib's fall, saying the army is fighting "fierce battles" to gain control of the city.
Idlib is the second provincial capital and major urban center lost by Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's forces in the four-year-old conflict.
The northeastern city of Raqqa fell to rebels, including the al-Nusra Front, in 2013.
