The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group, which tracks the violence from Britain, said the alliance had launched attacks on several areas of Idlib including army outposts but had not yet breached the edge of the city. At least 16 people died after a Friday night air strike on a prison in Syria's rebel-held Idlib province including both prisoners and staff, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based war monitor, said on Saturday. Almost all the province remains under opposition control, and it has regularly been targeted by both Russian and government air strikes as well as raids launched by the US-led coalition fighting the Islamic State group.
