Turkish drone strikes killed 26 Syrian soldiers on Saturday, an independent war monitor said, after Ankara warned Damascus that it would "pay a price" for killing dozens of Turkish troops on its soil. The Britain-based Observatory for Human Rights said the strikes "targeted positions of the regime forces in the Idlib and Aleppo countryside".
Moscow-backed Syrian troops are battling to retake Idlib, the last major rebel bastion. Turkey supports some rebel groups in the area. Saturday's attacks came after 33 Turkish soldiers were killed in an air strike by Syrian regime forces on Thursday.
