At Least 20 Civilians Killed in Syria as U.N. Warns of Humanitarian Crisis
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Syria, over 20 civilians were killed Tuesday as attacks in the
northwestern rebel stronghold of Idlib continue by government and
Russian forces. Nine children were among the dead, according to the
Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. The United Nations is
warning that 3 million people in Idlib are caught in the crosshairs of
the fighting, and blasted the international community's lack of action
in the face of the growing humanitarian crisis.
