Airstrikes in Syria kill 21

KAFR Halab, Syria: Nine children were among at least 21 civilians killed in regime attacks on Syria’s northwest, a jihadist stronghold that had come under intensified bombardment in the past month, a monitor said.

The strikes, some of which hit a hospital, followed two days of increased bombing by Damascus and its Russian ally on jihadist-dominated Idlib province and parts of neighboring regions.
