Syrian regime forces press with a new military assault on the country's last rebel stronghold, causing a mass exodus of civilians fleeing to safer areas near the Turkish border
Civilians ride in a truck as they flee Maaret al Numan, Syria, ahead of a regime offensive, December 23, 2019.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres is alarmed by the escalation of fighting and is calling for an immediate halt to hostilities, his spokesman said late Monday. Residents of villages and towns in southern parts of Idlib province have been fleeing with their belongings in trucks, cars and on motorcycles.
“As you can see the destruction is massive. Residents were forced to flee this area,” said a member of the White Helmets in a video as he walked through Maaret al Numan. “They had to choose between death or fleeing to the unknown further north.”
