Douma was also the site of a suspected government chemical attack in April, which triggered punitive strikes by U.S., British and French forces.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Now forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad and their Russian backers have their sights set on Idlib, Syria&#8217;s last major rebel enclave.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_133378\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-133378\" style=\"width: 583px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arabtelegraph.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/A-convoy-of-Turkish-military-vehicles-travels-on-a-highway-near-the-town-of-Saraqib-in-Syrias-northern-Idlib-province.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-133378\" src=\"https:\/\/www.arabtelegraph.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/A-convoy-of-Turkish-military-vehicles-travels-on-a-highway-near-the-town-of-Saraqib-in-Syrias-northern-Idlib-province-300x197.jpg\" alt=\"A convoy of Turkish military vehicles travels on a highway near the town of Saraqib in Syria's northern Idlib province\" width=\"583\" height=\"383\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.arabtelegraph.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/A-convoy-of-Turkish-military-vehicles-travels-on-a-highway-near-the-town-of-Saraqib-in-Syrias-northern-Idlib-province-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.arabtelegraph.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/A-convoy-of-Turkish-military-vehicles-travels-on-a-highway-near-the-town-of-Saraqib-in-Syrias-northern-Idlib-province.jpg 560w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 583px) 100vw, 583px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-133378\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A convoy of Turkish military vehicles travels on a highway near the town of Saraqib in Syria&#8217;s northern Idlib province<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">While Assad has publicly called for reconciliation and vowed to target only \u201cterrorists\u201d in Idlib, some aid groups fear a massacre is looming.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Nearly 3 million civilians live in the rebel stronghold. Many are refugees from other war-torn parts of Syria.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Rebels \u2014 including thousands believed to belong to powerful extremist groups \u2014 live among the population, prompting fears that civilians will be caught up in the violence.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Those awaiting the assault told NBC News they are afraid that they have nowhere left to flee.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tc tl-m ad-container\" dir=\"ltr\">Secretary of State Mike Pompeo last week said Syrians &#8220;who have already been forced out of their homes &#8230; will suffer from this aggression.&#8221;<\/div>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">And Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the U.N., on Monday tweeted that &#8220;all eyes&#8221; were watching &#8220;the actions of Assad, Russia, and Iran in Idlib.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Turkey, which has backed some rebel groups, is trying to avert an attack by Syrian forces.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;What I fear is that Idlib could be the battle like no other battle,&#8221; said Jan Egeland, special adviser to the U.N. special envoy for Syria. &#8220;There are 100 armed opposition groups &#8230; several of them have been labeled terrorists,\u201d he said. \u201cBut 10 times more babies [are] in the same place.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"medium___16lj6\" dir=\"ltr\"><\/figure>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The United Nations Children&#8217;s Fund (UNICEF) estimates more than a million children are at risk in the event of a government assault and has drawn up contingency plans to provide clean water and nutritional supplies.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Egeland is pushing for negotiations to stop the expected offensive.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cThis war has to end in talks in Idlib, not in a bloodbath,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">But some on the streets of Douma are demanding retribution.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For his part, Youssef Kareem, 21, whose family owns a spice store in Douma\u2019s bazaar, says he hopes rebels will be punished for the pain they have caused his family.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;We suffered,&#8221; Kareem said, repeating an often-heard refrain as he stood among brightly colored piles of paprika, sumac and cumin. &#8220;They were looting the shops, that&#8217;s why they were fighting each other, for the money and the goods.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Kareem said he watched as rebels who controlled his neighborhood battled other factions and feels little sympathy for them.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">He said he was injured trying to hide from the clashes, struck in the throat by shrapnel from mortar fire. Kareem&#8217;s 14-year-old brother died from his wounds, he said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">While Kareem worries about what might become of the innocent civilians in Idlib, the scars on his neck serve as a stark and constant reminder of what he lost.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;The fighters who did bad things to the country should be held accountable,&#8221;
