[Ynet] A boom-mobile blew up at a rebel base north of the Syrian city of Aleppo on Tuesday, killing at least seven people, two activist groups said.

The Britannia-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights put the corpse count in the bombing at seven people, including two rebel leaders. It said dozens were also maimed.

They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group boom-mobileings overnight of rebels in Syria's Aleppo province has risen to at least 32 people, a monitor said on Wednesday. Three local commanders were killed in one of the attacks, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said, describing the incidents as an apparent IS attempt to expand in the northern province. One bomb hit a base in the village of Hawar Kilis, near the Turkish border, killing at least 23 rebels, the Britannia-based Observatory said. The second targeted a joint rebel office in the town of Marea and killed nine, including the three commanders. The Observatory said the commanders were from the conservative Jabhat Shamiya and Jaish al-Mujahideen groups and al-Nusra ...the current nom de guerre of al-Qaeda in the Levant, which isn't to be confused with al-Qaeda in Iraq and the Levant... Front, al-Qaeda's local affiliate, which confirmed the death of its commander on its official Twitter accounts. "Abu Maria, al-Nusra ...formally Jabhat an-Nusrah li-Ahli sh-Sham (Support Front for the People of the Levant), also known as al-Qaeda in the Levant. They aim to establish a pan-Arab caliphate. Not the same one as the Islamic State, though .. ... Front's emir (leader) in Marea, northern Aleppo, was martyred after being targeted by the (Islamic) State group," al-Nusra said. The Observatory said festivities erupted between rebels from local groups and IS fighters in and around Marea after the attack there, though they had subsided by Wednesday morning. Observatory director Rami Abdel Rahman said the attacks appeared to be a bid by IS to "expand their reach" in Aleppo province, where the group already has considerable power. Marea and Hawar Kilis are both under the control of groups opposed to IS. Despite sharing a similar ideology, al-Nusra and IS are at odds in fronts across most of Syria, and while rebel groups have battled IS, they cooperate with al-Nusra in many places. Marea and Hawar Kilis lie north of the bustling provincial capital, Aleppo city, the country's onetime economic powerhouse, which has been devastated by the civil war. | ||
