None

Syrian activist groups say government airstrikes on a northern town controlled by the extremist Islamic State group have killed at least 11 people.

 

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says six air raids struck the town of al-Bab in Aleppo province Thursday. It says at least 11 people were killed and more than 17 wounded in the strikes, one of which hit a crowded market.

 

Another activist group, the Aleppo Media Center, put the death toll at 19 and said another 20 people were wounded.
