Syria : Bombing 'kills 20' at Turkey border crossing

At least 20 people, most of them rebel fighters, have been killed and dozens injured in a bombing near Syria's border with Turkey, activists say.


The attack reportedly occurred during a change of guard at the rebel-controlled Atmeh crossing, in Idlib province.

It was not immediately clear whether the blast was caused by a suicide bomber or a remote-controlled device.

A news agency linked to so-called Islamic State (IS) said a suicide car bombing had targeted a rebel convoy.

But a local journalist told Sky News Arabia it was likely that a bag filled with explosives had been planted at the scene because cars had not been allowed to enter the area before the blast.
