This photo provided on Monday, August 2, 2018, by the al-Qaida-affiliated Ibaa News Network, shows a tank of the al-Qaida-linked coalition known as Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham, Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham, Arabic for Levant Liberation Committee, firing at Syrian troops and pro-government gunmen in rural Aleppo, Syria. It's already being called the "mother of all battles," the last showdown between the forces of Syrian President Bashar Assad and the opposition. Idlib province, in Syria's northwest, is the only significant opposition enclave still standing and Assad has vowed to retake it. The caption in Arabic reads: “Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham targets groups of the criminal government faces in Castello area with tank shells”. (Photo by Ibaa News Network via AP Photo)
