Syria crisis
The EU is warning of a major international conflict in Syria. The battle for the holdout rebel city of Idlib (not far from the Syrian-Turkish border) escalated last night, with at least 33 Turkish soldiers being killed in an airstrike conducted by either Assad's regime or the Russian air force. Almost a million citizens of that city alone have been displaced, and Europe might now be in for a fresh refugee crisis, because Turkey has suddenly decided to end its deal with the EU that saw it stop Syrian refugees from reaching Europe. Greece, which along with Bulgaria provides the EU's border with Turkey, is bracing for arrivals. Reuters
