Syrian fighter jets bomb rebel-held areas in north

Syrian activists say government airstrikes have targeted rebel positions near a strategic northern city. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory says Syrian fighter jets twice hit opposition-held areas and the airstrikes were followed by heavy clashes. The group says there were casualties in the fighting but gave no specifics. The city is strategic because it sits astride a major supply route linking the capital, Damascus, with Syria's largest city and commercial hub, Aleppo, in the north.
