November 09, 2015

Apparent Russian air strikes killed at least 11 civilians on today in two towns in Syria's northwestern Idlib province, a monitoring group said.

Nine people, including a child, were killed in strikes on areas in the town of Maaret al-Numan, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

Another two women were killed in Saraqib in the same province, the Britain-based monitor said.

It said both sets of raids were believed to have been carried out by Russian planes participating in an aerial campaign Moscow launched in Syria on September 30.
