Beirut: At least 11 civilians including two children were killed on Sunday in air strikes on a market in northwestern Syria, a monitor said.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the strikes on the market in Idlib province's Maaret al-Numan were probably carried out by regime forces.
Much of Idlib province, including Maaret al-Numan, is controlled by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), a group led by Al- Qaeda's former Syria affiliate.
Idlib is one of four so-called "de-escalation" zones under a deal brokered by Russia, Turkey and Iran in May.
However, the HTS is not party to the agreement.
