Air strikes in opposition-held northwest Syria killed at least 40 people and wounded around 80 on Tuesday, a rebel commander and a rescue worker said.
The rescue worker said 38 people were killed in the town of Maarat al-Numan in the insurgent stronghold of Idlib province, and said 10 people were also killed in the nearby town of Kafr Nubl.
Ahmed al-Seoud, head of the 13th Division, a foreign-backed faction fighting under the umbrella of the Free Syrian Army, told Reuters the air strikes hit the main vegetable market, killing around 40 people and wounding around 80.
