The United Nations has expressed alarm over spiraling violence in Syria as opposition groups continue to battle pro-government forces in the central province of Hama, and fighters from a US-backed, Kurdish-led coalition battle government forces in the country’s northeast.
State news agency SANA said Syrian troops were fighting fierce battles in the central Hama province on Tuesday. Syrian and Russian warplanes carried out air attacks in the northern Hama countryside, according to state media.
