ISTANBUL (Halbeeg News) – The leaders of Turkey and Russia have agreed to create a demilitarized buffer zone in the Syrian province of Idlib to separate government and rebel forces.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said the zone would be 15km to 25km wide and come into force by 15 October.
All heavy weapons would have to be withdrawn by the warring parties, and “radically-minded” rebels and jihadists would have to pull out, he added.
