Deir Turmanin… a Longstanding Example of Architectural Art in Idleb"Deir al-Sheikh" is Arabic, not Syriac. I would think SANA should be able to tell the difference.

IDLEB, (SANA) – The Deir Turmanin site, located 40 kilometers northeast of Idleb city at what is known as "the old town," represents a unique example of ancient architectural arts.
The name Turmanin is believed to be Aramaic in origin, derived from "Kafr Rumanin" meaning "pomegranate farm." In Syriac, it was called Deir al-Sheikh, a name partially inspired from the nearby monastery known as Deir Saban.
The remaining landmarks in the site consist of an ancient ruin consisting of a church, an inn, a small house, a burial chamber and water reservoirs. One of the inscriptions in the site includes the date 592 AD.
