(AFP)- Syrian government airstrikes on two rebel-held areas of the central province of Homs killed at least 25 civilians, 11 of them children, a monitoring group said on Sunday.
Sixteen members of a single family were among 18 people killed in raids late-Saturday on the town of Talbisseh, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
They included 10 children and three women, said the Britain-based monitoring group which has a wide network of sources inside Syria.
In the Waer district on the outskirts of Homs -- the only area of Syria's third city in rebel hands -- the evening airstrikes killed seven people, including a child, the Observatory added.
