Deadly Strikes Hit Syria Rebel Bastion As Army Advances
January 30, 2020
Air strikes killed 10 civilians near a bakery and a medical clinic in Syria’s last major rebel stronghold on Thursday, as government forces pressed a fierce ground offensive.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Russian warplanes hit the Idlib province town of Ariha, but the Russian defence ministry said its “aviation did not carry out any combat tasks in this area of Syria.”
