'15 dead’ in huge blast in northwest Syria

Thirteen civilians were among those killed in the blast, the cause of which was not immediately clear.

“The explosion hit next to the market,” killing 15 people including the daughter of a Turkestani fighter, Observatory chief Rami Abdel Rahman said. Abdu said 13 civilians had died in “an explosion of unknown origin.” Abu Ammar, a father of two, told AFP he felt the “huge” blast from his home about 50 metres away.

Idlib has since September been protected from a massive regime offensive by a fragile ceasefire deal signed by Damascus ally Russia and rebel backer Turkey, but the region of some three million people has come under increasing bombardment since HTS took full control of it in January.
