Monitors say 10 killed in Syria shelling of tent settlements

IDLIB, Syria (AP) — First responders and opposition war monitors say Syrian government forces have shelled tent settlements housing families displaced by the country’s conflict in the rebel-held northwest, killing at least 10 people and wounding dozens. Sunday’s shelling is the latest violation of a truce reached between Russia and Turkey in March 2020. It ended a Russian-backed government offensive on Idlib province, which is the last major rebel-held stronghold in Syria. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war monitor,  and local first responders reported that government forces fired about 30 rockets toward rebel-held areas, including the Maram camp, Sunday morning killing nine and wounding more than 70.
