All the joint Russian-Turkish patrols in southern Idlib took place in a limited area only. The area of the patrols serves a direct demonstration of the fact that the March 5 de-escalation agreement remains not implemented. The security along the M4 highway in southern Idlib has not been created and remains in the hands of radical militants. So, it is not safe for Russian forces to move along the highway there.
