The Syrian government has declared three days of mourning after an attack on a military academy in the western city of Homs.
It blames armed groups, backed by international parties, for the drone strike targeting a graduation ceremony.
Immediately after the attack, the military bombed opposition-held Idlib in northern Syria.
President Bashar al Assad says his country is no longer at war.
But with attacks like these, who is calling the shots in Syria?
And what role do foreign parties play on the ground?
Presenter: Mohammed Jamjoom
Guests:
Alexey Khlebnikov, Middle East specialist at the Russian International Affairs Council
Omer Ozkizilcik, foreign policy and security analyst who focuses on Syria
Joshua Landis, director of the Center for Middle East Studies at the University of Oklahoma
