Blast Decimates Leadership of Syrian Rebel Group
(AFP) "Twenty-eight heads of the Ahrar al-Sham group were killed in an explosion that targeted a meeting...in Idlib province," Syrian Observatory for Human Rights director Rami Abdel Rahman said Tuesday. Some 50 military and religious leaders were attending a meeting in a house in Ram Hamdan, northeast of Idlib city. Among those who died was Hassan Abbud, the leader of Ahrar al-Sham, the main group in the Islamic Front. In recent months the Islamic Front has been locked in fighting with the Islamic State.
