IDLIB OPERATION
Turkey has been reinforcing its military presence on the border with Syria as the Syrian regime has recently announced plans to launch a major military offensive in Idlib, home to more than 3 million Syrians, many of whom fled from other cities following attacks by Assad forces.
The UN warned that such an offensive would lead to the “worst humanitarian catastrophe in the 21st century”.
