Explosive remnants of Syria's war killed nearly 30 civilians, including more than a dozen children, last month, a war monitoring group said Wednesday.

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said "29 civilians, including 12 children, died from explosive remnants in March" and that another 29 were wounded.
