Air strikes hit the edges of Syria’s last major rebel stronghold west of Aleppo on Sunday, a monitor said, a day after an alleged toxic attack on the regime-held city.
Air strikes hit the edges of Syria’s last major rebel stronghold west of Aleppo on Sunday, a monitor said, a day after an alleged toxic attack on the regime-held city.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitor said regime ally Russia “likely” carried out the air strikes on a planned buffer zone around the opposition bastion of Idlib.
They were the first to hit the area since Moscow and rebel backer Ankara agreed to set up the demilitarised area around Idlib in September to prevent a massive regime attack to retake the area.
