BEIRUT — Turkish strikes on northwest Syria late on Friday killed nine members of Iran-backed Hezbollah and wounded 30 others, a commander in the regional alliance backing Syrian President BasharAl-Assad said. The commander said on Saturday that the Turkish strikes targeted Hezbollah headquarters near the city of Saraqib in Idlib, a flashpoint of fighting in recent days, using smart missiles and drones. Meanwhile, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Saturday he asked his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin to "get out of our way" in Syria"s last rebel bastion of Idlib, after 33 Turkish troops died. "I asked Mr Putin: "what"s your business there? If you establish a base, do so but get out of our way and leave us face to face with the regime,"" he said in Istanbul, recalling his phone conversation. — Agencies
