ANKARA - Turkey and Russia are discussing the establishment of a secure zone within Syria’s northwestern Idlib region where Syrians displaced by fighting can shelter during the winter, Turkish Defence Minister Hulusi Akar said on Wednesday.

Witnesses and rebel sources said on Wednesday Russian jets struck several rebel-held towns in southern Idlib for the first time since the ceasefire came into force. Russia has said people could escape the attacks on opposition-held areas by crossing into territory controlled by Assad’s forces, but Akar said that was not an option.
