Turkey sends reinforcements to Syria's Idlib, asks Russia to rein in regime, expects Russia delegation for Syria talks
Russia says some of its"specialists" were killed in attacks in Idlib province even as Ankara dispatches reinforcements to counter regime incursions in ceasefire zone, media and activists say.
Ankara said it targeted more than 50 regime positions eliminating over 70 regime personnel in retaliatory attacks. Turkish troops are deployed in some of those rebel-held areas to monitor a ceasefire that has been continuously violated by the regime. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reiterated the notion on Thursday, saying that both Russia and Turkey each have "their own sets of concerns". The concentration of militant and rebel groups in Idlib and their "continuing activity" was Russia’s main issue, he said.
"Of course there is a limit to our patience. After we had eight martyrs, we retaliated ... if the regime keeps on its aggression, we will not stop there," he said.
