Demonstations against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and Russian military intervention in Syria sweep through the northwestern town of Kafr Nabl, close to the Turkish border.

Kafr Nabl is in Idlib Governorate, one of the Syrian opposition's last major strongholds. Four were killed in Russian airstrikes there on Friday.

On Friday, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at trilateral talks with Turkey and Iran that Russia would continue the fight against what he calls "terrorists" in the area. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that he did not want the area to become a "bloodbath" while acknowledging the presence of a regional terrorist threat.

"I am not sure about the future of our area," said filmer Raed Fares, adding that he was "very worried."

Fares manages a radio station in the area, Radio Fresh FM, and has participated in hundreds of demonstrations against al-Assad since the uprising began in 2011.

Since then, he has also had to deal with non-governmental threats too. Jihadist group Jabhat Fateh al-Sham (JFS, formerly known as al-Nusra Front) tried to stop him from playing music on air, to which he responded by playing football chants and animal noises, reported the BBC in 2017.

He also received a barrage of bullets from two Islamic State (IS) militants some five years ago.

Hundreds of thousands have died in the Syrian civil war, with further reports of tens of thousands tortured at the hands of al-Assad's forces.
