Blast on Turkey-Syria crossing kills rebel fighters

A bomb blast at a Syria-Turkey border crossing has killed at least 29 rebel fighters and wounded at least 20 more, witnesses and a monitoring group reported.

Thursday's blast took place on the Syrian side of the Atmeh crossing, west of Aleppo.

A photo sent by a witness in the area, purportedly of its aftermath, showed bloodied corpses lying on the ground, the Reuters news agency reported.

Most of the rebels were from a Turkey-backed group called Failaq al-Sham, Reuters reported witnesses as saying.
