Air raids kill at least 49 civilians in northwest Syria

Syrian government air strikes on a town in Syria's northwest Idlib province killed at least 49 civilians on Monday, including six children, a monitoring group said.

Dozens of people were also wounded in the strikes in the town of al-Janudiyah, some of them seriously, and the death-toll was likely to rise, the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

The monitor said the raids hit a square in the town, located in the west of Idlib, which now almost totally controlled by rebel forces.

Government forces now hold only a handful of positions in Idlib, where a rebel alliance that includes Al-Qaeda affiliate Al-Nusra Front captured the provincial capital in March.

Also on Monday, barrel bombs dropped by Syrian war planes killed four civilians including a woman and a child in the town of Tal Refat in neighbouring Aleppo province, the Observatory said.
