AMMAN/BEIRUT/ANKARA - Syrian government forces made significant advances on Sunday in the country’s northwestern Aleppo province, seizing most of the rebel-held region, state media said, a day before a new round of talks between Turkey and Russia on the escalation in the area.
Turkey, which backs rebels looking to oust Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, has been outraged since Syrian attacks in the Idlib region killed 13 Turkish troops in two weeks. It has urged Russia to stop the attacks, warning it would use military power to drive back the Syrian forces unless they withdraw by the end of the month.
“In day one, they took an area where for eight years they could not take a single village,” Rami Abdulrahman, director of the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitor said. Turkey-backed rebels have meanwhile launched an operation in Idlib to retake areas lost to Syrian government forces. Turkey’s state-run Anadolu news agency said on Sunday that a 100-vehicle convoy of reinforcements, including troops, tanks and military vehicles and equipment, had been deployed to Idlib.
“We told ...that the aggression in Idlib must stop and that a lasting ceasefire has to be achieved now,” Cavusoglu told reporters during a briefing at the Munich Security Conference, adding that Turkish and Russian officials will discuss the issue in Moscow on Monday.

HaraldDoornbos ~52% of the province is now back under Syrian government control; ~27.5% is under nominal SDF control (mostly Ayn al-Arab district, and part of Manbij district); and ~20.5% is under control of the Turkish jihadists of HTS/AQ (mostly Afrin, Azaz, Al-Bab and Jarabulus districts).
