Rebels yesterday killed 22 troops in the Syrian army’s deadliest day of a three-week-old ceasefire deal, even as UN observers said they were having a “calming” impact as they deploy on the ground.
Fifteen troops, including two colonels, were killed in a rebel ambush at dawn in the northern province of Aleppo, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
Two rebels also died in the attack near Al-Rai village, after President Bashar al-Assad’s forces had “scaled up military operations” there in the days since the truce took effect on April 12, said the watchdog.
