Toll from airstrikes on market in Syria climbs to 61
BEIRUT: A Syrian war monitoring group on Tuesday raised the death toll from airstrikes on a market in a northern, rebel-held town in Syria the previous day to 61 as rescue workers continued searching for victims buried under the rubble. According to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, there were at least three airstrikes on the market in the town of Atareb. The city and the countryside around it remain outside the control of the government in Damascus.
