Russian and Syrian jets pound Idlib province after summit

Idlib is Syria's last major stronghold of active opposition to the rule of President Bashar al-Assad. At least a dozen air strikes hit a string of villages and towns in southern Idlib and the town of Latamneh and Kafr Zeita in northern Hama where rebels are still in control, witnesses and rescuers said. Syrian helicopters dropped so-called barrel bombs -- containers filled with explosive material -- on homes on the outskirts of the city of Khan Sheikhoun in southern Idlib, two residents said.
