Syria could see "tremendous battles" for two remaining rebel enclaves even once a regime onslaught on the last insurgent pocket near Damascus is over, said Jan Egeland, head of the Norwegian Refugee Council and a senior UN adviser on Syria. International attention has focused on the battle for besieged eastern Ghouta outside the capital and for Afrin in the far north where Turkey sent in forces to combat Kurdish militia it sees as a threat to its security. But they are not the last flashpoints as Syrias war enters its eighth year, three years after the tide began turning in the favor of Bashar Assad, Egeland told Reuters in an interview. He said that in each battle, civilians were caught between warring sides who justified their ruthlessness by claiming to be fighting terrorism or dictatorship. "It’s really not too late to have talks around Idlib, to have talks around Dsraa, and to have talks around Afrin," he said. "Idlib would be a tremendous concern because Idlib is in many ways a gigantic refugee camp." To stem one of the worst effects of the fighting - air strikes on medical facilities - Egeland said a new notification system for the coordinates of more than a dozen hospitals had gone into effect in the last few days. "We have delivered coordinates on hospitals both in eastern Ghouta and in Idlib to the United States and to Russia, and Russia will not only guarantee that they will not attack, we’re asking them also to make sure that Syrian armed forces, the air force, is not targeting the hospitals," Egeland said. "I was in touch with the Russians and the Americans yesterday on this," Egeland said. "The armed groups have given it to the UN, and the UN has transmitted this to Russia and the US, and they will then transmit it to their allies."
