Turkey warns attack on Syria's Idlib would cause humanitarian disaster
A Syrian government offensive in the country's northern region of Idlib would cause humanitarian and security risks for Turkey, Europe and beyond, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said on Tuesday in an article in the Wall Street Journal.
Last week, Russian and Syrian warplanes resumed their bombing campaign in Idlib, the last rebel enclave in Syria, after weeks of quiet, in an apparent prelude to a full-scale offensive.
Erdogan failed to secure a pledge for a ceasefire from Russia and Iran, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's main backers, at a trilateral summit in Tehran.
