Russian jets strike outpost in Idlib, opposition say

Oposition sources claimed on Sunday that Russian jets hit an outpost in Syria's northwestern Idlib province near the border with Turkey, killing at least one opposition fighter and wounding several others.

Axar.az reports that they said several raids overnight hit Babeska, a village in Idlib province that has become a haven for several moderate Free Syrian Army (FSA) groups.

A tripartite mechanism was established in February by Turkey, Russia and Iran to monitor the cease-fire in Syria.

Opposition forces say Russia has failed to put pressure on the Assad regime to ensure the ceasefire holds.

The village also houses hundreds of families and fighters from the Damascus suburb of Daraya which was evacuated by opposition forces and surrendered to Assad regime control last year.

War jets also believed to be Russian also struck Urum al Kubra town in opposition-held western Aleppo countryside where five civilians were killed, in an area that witnessed fighting between the opposition and the Assad regime, opposition said.
