(Zaman Al Wasl)- At least 8 civilians killed and 12 more wounded in vacuum missile attack on Hafsarja village in northern Idlib province, local reporter said Monday.
The aerial bombing of regime war planes has also targeted towns of Ariha, Jisr al-Shughour and Maaret al-Numan, the reporter said.
On Sunday, three women and three children were killed in Binnish town in regime air strikes.
In burning Aleppo province, a fragile and limited cease-fire has been extended for the third time, for another 48 hours starting at 1 a.m. Tuesday morning, the regime military said Monday.
The extension came a couple of hours before an earlier cease-fire was set to expire at 12:01 Tuesday morning. It is not clear why the one-hour gap was planned between the new cease-fire and the expiring one.
Despite the declared truce, regime forces and their allies clashed with rebels near Aleppo on Monday and warplanes launched more raids around a strategic town of Khan Touman that Jaish al-Fatah seized last week, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
The capture of Khan Touman was a rare setback for government forces in Aleppo province in recent months, and for allied Iranian troops who suffered heavy losses in the fighting.
In Damascus's eastern outskirts on Monday, mortar fire wounded nearly 20 people, some very seriously, around the town of Arbin in the Eastern Ghouta area, and shelling close to nearby Douma killed at least one person, the British-based monitoring group reported.
