The situation in Idlib
At a meeting in Astana in 2017, Turkey, Russia and Iran agreed to create 4 “de -escalation zones” in a territory not controlled by the Syrian government.
The Syrian administration supported by Iran terrorists and Russia continued the offensive, capturing 3 out of 4 zones and turning towards Idlib.
In September 2018, Turkey reached an additional agreement with Russia on strengthening the ceasefire, but in May 2019, attacks intensified again. After the conclusion of a new agreement between Turkey and Russia on March 5, 2020, the ceasefire is mainly preserved.
About 2 million civilians saved from attacks in 2017-2020 were forced to migrate to areas located near the Turkish border.
