BEIRUT: A shell fired by the Syrian army hit a pickup truck in the northwestern province of Idlib on Friday killing a woman and eight children, a watchdog said.
"A mother, her four children and four nephews were killed and their bodies torched" in the bombardment of the rebel-held town of Saraqeb, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
They were among at least 25 civilians who were killed in violence on Friday. Twenty-five rebels also died, the Britain-based watchdog said.
