Syria: Car bomb kills '41' near al-Bab after IS defeat

At least 41 people have been killed by a car bomb in a rebel-held village near the Syrian town of al-Bab.

The explosion destroyed a rebel security post in Sousian.

The village is 8km north-west of al-Bab, from which Turkish-backed rebels pushed so-called Islamic State fighters yesterday.
 
Civilians were gathering to seek permission to return to al-Bab when the bomb exploded.

The attack killed 35 civilians and six rebel fighters.
 
Reports say the target was a rebel checkpoint.
