The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) claim to have repelled a militant counterattack in the southern countryside of Idlib on Tuesday.
Tanks, artillery and trucks with mounted machine guns were all used in the defence.
A number of captured weapons and destroyed vehicles were also shown to the camera.
In an interview, one SAA soldier described the situation as "good".
"After the victories the army achieved in Khan Sheikhoun and the southern area of Hama countryside and Idlib, [terrorists] attacked us en masse," he explained.
"The position was defended and we lost nothing."
Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), an al-Qaeda linked militant group present in the area, were reportedly behind the counterattack.
