[EN.ZAMANALWSL.NET] A Syrian regime Arclight airstrike on the northern Syrian town of al-Bab near Aleppo killed at least 23 people, including 3 children and 3 women, and maimed dozens on Saturday, the Syrian Network for Human Rights said as a barrel bomb pounded a crowded local market.

Activists said the deadly attack on al-Bab is the second in four days where 15 people, including 6 children, had been killed when barrel bomb stormed Ibad al-Rahman mosque on Wednesday minutes before the Maghrib Prayer where people were preparing their daily breakfast for Ramadan, the holy month where Moslems fast from dawn to sunset.
