Missile kills 11 Islamists, 5 civilians in Syria's Idlib: activists
BEIRUT: At least 11 Islamist fighters and five civilians were killed as a ballistic missile struck a building in northwest Syria during a meeting between rebel groups, activists said Monday.
"Eleven fighters from (Al-Qaeda affiliate) the Nusra Front and other Islamist groups were killed on Sunday, along with five civilians, when a ballistic missile hit a police station being used as a court in Salqin" in Idlib province, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
The Britain-based group said it was unclear if the missile was fired by Russian or Syrian forces.
The monitor said the toll could rise further because a number of people had been seriously wounded in the strike.
The missile struck during a reconciliation meeting between members of Nusra and the Islamist militant group Ahrar al-Sham, who had exchanged fire in the town earlier the same day.

Another Milwaukee incident?
Now was that the People's Front For The Liberation Of Palestine?
“At least 11 Islamist fighters and five civilians were killed as a ballistic missile struck a building in northwest Syria during a meeting between rebel groups”
Fantastic practical joke!
As long as wiped Islamic crazies, I won’t shed tears
Now, that's just as wrong as fighting in the War Room...
Naahhhh ... the civvies were women they brought in to ... um .... serve them .....
Not launched by Americans? OK, no one was hurt.
That’s a shame.
But the place would hold maybe three times that many murderous lowlife.
So that’s a *crying* shame.
The latest spin I saw was 11 civilians (sure, they were), and it was a Russian toshka missile loaded with cluster (ooh, evil) munitions.
Ya gotta respect russia.
They fight. They fight to win. They don’t care if the western PC media disapprove.
“At least 11 Islamist fighters and five civilians were killed as a BALLISTIC MISSILE struck a building in northwest Syria”
That’s some serious hardware, if the Russians are now using it. I’d say it’s game over for the terrorists.
Russkis won’t waste an expensive ballistic missile on conventional explosives. They’ll use the cheaper guided ones and get more bang for the buck.
Are we going to go back to “body count” now? Let us know when the 500,000th one has bitten the dust...OR better still - when there are no more muslims on the face of the earth!!!
