Russia Accuses US Of Risking Idlib Ceasefire With Missile Strike.
Russia accused the United States Sunday of having “compromised” a fragile ceasefire in the Syrian province of Idlib by launching a missile strike against jihadist leaders there.
The strike caused “great losses and destruction,” the Russian defence ministry added in a statement, accusing Washington of having “compromised the ceasefire in the de-escalation zone of Idlib.”The US strike, which targeted leaders of Al-Qaeda in Syria, killed at least 40 jihadists, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
Syrian government airstrikes on the jihadist-run Idlib region had halted earlier Saturday after the regime agreed to a Moscow-backed ceasefire following four months of deadly bombardment that killed more than 950 civilians, the monitor said.
