A US-led coalition raid on Thursday targeted a suspected al Qaeda-affiliated jihadist in the northern Syrian town of Atmeh, resulting in several civilian casualties, said residents and sources with the rebels fighting against the Syrian government.
The Syrian Civil Defence said on Thursday that at least 13 people were killed, including six children, in shelling and clashes after a raid earlier that morning in northwestern Syria near Atmeh on the Turkish-Syrian border, where tens of thousands of displaced Syrians live in makeshift camps or overcrowded housing.
