An airstrike on a Syrian refugee camp near the Turkish border is believed to have killed at least 30 people. It's not known who carried out the attack in Idlib province， but a journalist in the region told the BBC local people have blamed the Syrian government which has targeted rebels in the area in recent weeks. This eyewitness says the victims were all civilians. “They're all women and children, no one else. Look what those criminals have done. What did the children do? Where is Islam? Where is it? Where is the world? Where is it? Where is everyone? They are all liars. Where is everyone?” The White House has condemned the attack. The spokesman Josh Earnest said there was no justifiable excuse for carrying out an airstrike against innocent civilians who had already fled their homes to escape violence.

The Republican speaker of the US House of Representatives Paul Ryan says he’s not ready yet to support Donald Trump as the party's candidate for the presidency. Mr. Ryan said the billionaire businessman first had to show that he supported Republican principles and that he could win the votes of majority of Americans. Here is Laura Bicker. “Paul Ryan was in the running to be vice president in 2012. He's now the speaker of the House of Representatives. The House in the past has been critical of Donald Trump's proposal to ban Muslims from the US. He says he's still not ready to support the billionaire. Donald Trump has responded saying he's not ready to support speaker Ryan's agenda and added that the American people have been treated so badly for so long, it’s time politicians put them first.”

A vast wild fire in the Canadian province of Alberta is continuing to rage out of control. Three days on, the blaze has grown in size defying the efforts of firefighters with helicopters and air tankers to contain it. More than 80,000people have already fled their homes in the Fort McMurry area and an emergency worker Chad Morrison says the flames are fueled by powerful winds. “Late yesterday, the wild fire grew rapidly due to the increased winds. We had winds recorded on side up to 70 kilometers an hour. And those winds came from the northwest. The fire blew out to the southeast corner late last night. And hours late as the premier said the fire is estimated to 85,000 hectors.” The Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told parliament it was the largest evacuation in the province's history. He said the footage of cars racing down highways as far as spread around them was nothing short of terrifying.
