Christians of Mhardeh help Syrian Army in fight against jihadists
2019-05-23
[ALMASDARNEWS] The National Defense Forces (NDF) released a new video this week of their Mhardeh division taking part in the defense of Kafr Naboudeh in the northwestern countryside of Hama.

Mhardeh, one of the largest Christian towns in Syria, has long been targeted by the jihadist and Ottoman Turkish-backed rebel groups (even former US-backed groups) in northern Hama; this prompted them to establish one of the most powerful NDF units in the country.

Along with nearby Sqaylabiyeh, Mhardeh is known for its reliance on their local population to defend their town. For this reason, the jihadist and Ottoman Turkish-backed rebels have often targeted the civil infrastructure of Mhardeh in order to punish the civilians there.
