A senior field commander in the Turkish-backed National Liberation Front (NLF), a jihadist ‘rebel’ coalition in northwest Syria, was killed by Syrian Army artillery fire on September 10th in Idlib province, according to a Muraselon report.

The video footage below is said to have been originally released by Syrian opposition media and shows the moments following the death of Khaled al-Hassan, aka “Abu Al-Waleed Kirnaz”, after his ‘terrorist car’ was spotted by a Syrian military surveillance drone.
The report added that al-Hassan was a “well-known leader in Ahrar Asham faction,” now part of the Turkish-backed proxy NLF, which includes ‘Turkey-friendly’ factions like Ahrar al-Sham that has previous alliances with both Nusra Front (Al-Qaeda in Syria) and ISIS, and supports implementing Sharia law in Syria.
