Five buses intended to evacuate civilians near Idlib were burned on Sunday by armed men, thus delaying a deal to facilitate the departure of thousands from the last rebel area of Aleppo.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Vladimir Putin discussed an intensification of efforts to allow the flow of humanitarian aid and the achievement of a political solution in Syria.
