Massive blast rocks militant-held town in northern Syria, 13 killed
2019-11-17
[ALMASDARNEWS] A massive blast rocked the holy warrior-held town of al-Bab in eastern Aleppo today, local activists reported via social media.

According to the reports, as many as 13 non-combatants were killed and more than 20 others were maimed as a result of what is believed to be a boom-mobileing.

No group has grabbed credit for this latest attack.

Al-Bab was captured by the Ottoman Turkish-backed forces during their 2016 offensive in northern Syria; it has served as a front-line town for their troops and the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) in east Aleppo.
