(Reuters) - Jihadist insurgents launched attacks against Syrian army posts in northwestern Syria on Sunday, which they said killed at least 25 soldiers and injured others to avenge civilian casualties during a recent escalation of army shelling.
Rebels of the Turkey-backed mainstream Free Syrian Army (FSA) factions told Reuters that dozens of insurgents belonging to the jihadist Ansar al-Tawheed group attacked two major army checkpoints near the village of Masasneh in northern Hama province in a dawn attack.
