Reports from northern Syria say there have been further air attacks by Syrian government forces on rebel-held areas in Idlib province with some sources suggesting that toxic gas was used. Residents and medical staff report the smell of a foul odour as helicopters passed overhead. Our correspondent in Beirut Martin Patience has more details. One doctor told the BBC that helicopters dropped barrel bombs on the town of Saraqeb which has seen some of the fiercest fighting. He said 15 people were brought to hospitals after the suspected chemical attack. They smelt of chlorine he said and were suffering breathing problems and irritation in their eyes. Damascus has denied US allegations that there has been using chemical weapons on opposition forces. The Syria regime is currently fighting to regain control of Idlib province, one of the last major areas still under opposition control.

Senior figures in the African National Congress are to hold an emergency meeting today to decide the future of President Jacob Zuma who has resisted intense pressure to step down. The Party's popularity has already waning amid a weakening economy and the claims of corruption surrounding the President. From Johannesburg, Andrew Harding reports. The pressure on Jacob Zuma is growing relentlessly. On Sunday, a small ANC delegation reportedly failed to convince him to step down. Now a larger group is expected to gather in Jahannesburg to discuss his removal and to pave the way for the Party's executive committee to turn a polite request into a formal instruction. President Zuma, already facing substantial corruption charges, has seen his power base collapse after his allies lost control of the ANC in December and the Party's new leader Cyril Ramaphosa promised to tackle high-level corruption.
非国大高级官员将要在今天召开一场紧急会议，讨论总统雅各布•祖玛的去留问题，祖玛目前备受下台压力。随着经济不景气，执政党受欢迎度一落千丈，还有关于总统涉嫌贪污指控，以下是安德鲁•哈丁在约翰内斯堡发回的报道。雅各布•祖玛压力日益增大。周日，有报道称小型非国大代表未能劝说他下台。如今，约翰内斯堡有望组成大团体来讨论他的下台，这也是为执政党执行委员会铺平道路，委员会将从之前的礼貌请求变成正式命令。总统祖玛面临大量贪污指控，去年12月，其盟友失去了对非国大的控制权，祖玛的权力基础也就此坍塌，该党新领袖西里尔•拉马福萨承诺将打击高层腐败问题。
