A Russian Sukhoi Su-34 fighter drops bombs over the Syrian village of Kafr Ain in the southern countryside of Idlib province on September 7, 2018.
The presidents of Iran, Russia and Turkey were due to meet today in Tehran for a summit set to decide the future of Idlib province amid fears of a humanitarian disaster in Syria's last major rebel bastion.

T
wo Russian Su-34 fighter jets collided on Friday over the Sea of Japan during a training flight, with both crews managing to eject, the defence ministry said.
The bombers touched mid-air during a scheduled training exercise 35 kilometers (22 miles) from the shore in Russia's Far East, Russian news agencies reported citing the defense ministry.
Two pilots were later rescued during an operation involving several vessels of the country's Pacific Fleet as well as aircraft.
Neither of the jets carried munition.
