Truck bomb in Syria's Aleppo kills 23, including fighters: monitor

At least 23 people, most of them from the Ahrar al-Sham rebel group, were killed by a truck suicide bomber in Syria's Aleppo city on Monday, a monitor said. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said 19 fighters from the group and four civilians were killed in the blast in the Sukari district of the city.
The attack hit an Ahrar al-Sham checkpoint at the entrance to a security complex belonging to the group.
The Observatory said several prisoners being held by Ahrar al-Sham at a facility in the complex were also believed to have been killed, but it had no immediate toll.
