Fifty more people were injured in the airstrikes, and they were treated at the hospital, the staff member said.
The Syrian Revolution General Commission reported that at least 87 people were killed by airstrikes in the Syrian city of Rakka -- about 160 kilometres east of Aleppo --one of ISIL's strongholds in the country.
A large number of women and children were reportedly killed in the airstrikes, and more than 100 civilians were treated in hospitals.
