Al Jazeera's Anita McNaught, who just returned from the Syrian province of Idlib, says government's military operation in the country's northwest continues.

She says that while some areas in the province have experienced a lull in fighting, Idlib city has not.

Residents there continue to live in fear and the casualties continue to mount, she says.

McNaught sent us this report from the Turkish city of Antakya near the border with Syria.
