Beirut: At least seven children and two pregnant women were killed in an air strike in Syria's rebel stronghold province of Idlib on Tuesday, a monitor said.

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the strike on the town of Khan Sheikhun appeared to have been carried out by Russian warplanes.
