Activists say Syrian troops bombard refugee camp

-

Syrian government troops bombarded a camp hosting displaced people near the Turkish border in the country’s northwest Wednesday, striking an area close to a maternity hospital and killing at least 15 people, including six children, Syrian opposition activists said.

The attack came just hours after an airstrike on a nearby area killed six civilians.

The attacks show that a nearly threemonth fragile truce has collapsed as violence has intensifie­d in Idlib province, the last major rebel stronghold in the country.
