RIA Novosti correspondent reports from the scene that the Syrian army entered the town of Jergnaz on Monday, near militia-controlled main highway from Hama to Tripoli.
The pro-government al-Watan newspaper had earlier reported that the Syrian army on Monday released the militants from the most populous area of Idlib province.
Given its location, in the future, the occupation of the city will establish control of the important Ham-Aleppo highway in Idlib province, which has been completely controlled by the militants.
