33 Turkish soldiers killed by Syrian airstrikes in Idlib

Quote:

At least 33 Turkish soldiers have been killed in an air strike by Syrian government forces in north-west Syria, in a major escalation of the conflict. Turkey says it hit back by striking some 200 Syrian government targets, "neutralising" 309 Syrian soldiers. Russia, Syria's key military ally, says Turkish troops were attacked in Idlib province by Syrian forces while operating alongside jihadist fighters.

That's a bit of an escalation.
