Air strikes carried out by Bashar al-Assad’s army killed at least 42 people including 16 children, according to a London-based monitoring group, AFP reports.
Air raids on Sunday killed 19 people, six of them children, close to the Syrian city of Saraqeb, while another 23 people including 10 children were hit in the town of Ehsim, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
Civilians were believed to be sheltering near Saraqeb when they were attacked by air strikes.
Footage was loaded onto YouTube by anti-regime activists following the aftermath of the attack in Ehsim and showed desperate civilians trying to rescue a man buried in rubble, according to AFP.
