The rebel fighters, lolling sleepily in a former police station, are suddenly interrupted by a rocket that crashes into the roof over an unoccupied room. Although the Syrian regime has ceded direct control over this and much of the rest of Idleb, a rural province in the north-west, shelling and other attacks from a distance are a frequent annoyance--and worse. As night falls, behind closed doors, a woman sits guessing which village the distant thud of falling shells is coming from tonight. Her children, meanwhile, are busy describing in detail how the mother of a friend had her limbs torn off by a rocket. For all their risks, such villages look like positive havens to the Syrians fleeing Aleppo, the country's second city and now its primary battleground. As the civilian death toll rises, the question of whether other countries should intervene with armed force is becoming acute.
