Syria war: 'Explosion kills at least 23' in rebel-held Idlib

At least 23 people are reportedly dead with many more injured following a large explosion in the rebel-held city of Idlib, in northwestern Syria. 

The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the blast struck the headquarters of a minor rebel faction. 

Seven of the dead are believed to be civilians.  It is unclear what caused the blast. 

Some reports suggest it was a car bomb, while others say it was a drone attack. 

The Observatory, which monitors Syria's civil war through a network of sources, said rescue teams are working to recover the dead and wounded from the rubbles.
