Death toll expected to increase after bombs were dropped on crowded vegetable market in the country’s last opposition stronghold
Russian jets bombed villages and towns near the northwestern Syrian city of Idlib on Sunday, killing at least nine civilians and wounding dozens in a major flare-up of violence in the country’s last opposition stronghold, witnesses and rescuers said.
Farmers rushed the wounded to the hospital in bloodied vegetable trucks, while activists shared urgent calls for blood donations. During past outbreaks of fighting, Damascus and Russia have said they only target insurgent groups and deny indiscriminate attacks on civilians. Turkish troops based in the region have held back Russia and Damascus from a final assault to wrest back control of the enclave.
