Russian airstrikes on the village of Kafr Batikh in northwestern Idlib province killed 22 people on Wednesday including 19 children, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Wednesday.
Some 15 of those killed in the strike, in the eastern part of Idlib province, were from one family said the Britain-based war monitor.
On Monday, 22 displaced people have been killed when Russia's warplanes pounded their camp in northern Idlib province, Civil Defense rescuing group said.
The Russian used high-explosive missiles in the deadly strike on the camp in Hass village in the southern countryside of Idlib. 15 more people were also wounded, according to rescuing group.
Idlib has been a haven for tens of thousands of rebels and civilians who were forced to abandon their homes in other parts of western Syria that the government and its foreign military allies have recaptured from rebels.
It has already been the target of intensive strikes by the Russia and regime air forces in the past year that have killed thousands of civilians and destroyed hospitals and civil defense centers. (With Agencies)
