Strike reported near rebel-held north Syria town

None

Syrian opposition activists say warplanes have carried out their first airstrike since a US missile attack damaged a major air base in the central province of Homs.

 

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says the airstrike struck the northern edge of the rebel-held town of Khan Sheikhoun where a chemical attack killed more than 80 people earlier this week.

 

The Observatory and Turkey-based activist Ahmad al-Ahmad said Friday's airstrike caused material damaged but no casualties. They said it was not immediately clear if the warplanes were Syrian or Russian.
