Syria's Deadliest Days: Over 1,000 Killed in Clashes and Revenge Killings

In a tragic escalation of violence, over 1,000 people have lost their lives in Syria during two days of intense clashes and revenge killings.

Putin Apologizes for Azerbaijani Plane Crash Amid Rising Tensions

 

In a recent development, Russian President Vladimir Putin extended an apology to Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev following a tragic incident involving an Azerbaijani airliner.
