(Zaman Al Wasl)- At least 11 people were killed and scores injured in a regime and Russian airstrike Monday on the northwestern Idlib province, according to Civil Defense workers.
6 people have been killed while some 21 more people remain under the debris of collapsed buildings following the Russian strike, which targeted a residential area in Kafr Takharim town, Anadolu agency said.
5 more people, including a woman and her daughter, were killed in in Regime air strikes on local marketplace in the southern neighborhood of Idlib city.
Syria has been locked in a vicious civil war since early 2011, when the Bashar al-Assad regime cracked down on pro-democracy protests -- which erupted as part of the "Arab Spring" uprisings -- with unexpected ferocity.
Since then, more than a half million people have been killed and more than 10 million displaced across the war-battered country, according to the UN.
However, the Syrian Center for Policy Research, a Beirut-based NGO, puts the death toll from the six-year conflict at more than 470,000. (With AA)
