Fuel truck bomb kills 40 in northwestern Syria city

Fuel truck bomb kills 40 in northwestern Syria city.

The Turkish Defense Ministry, in a post published on its official Twitter page, said the attack took place in the city of Afrin, located more than 40 kilometers (24 miles) north of Aleppo, on Tuesday afternoon.

The ministry added that at least 40 people, including eleven children, were killed and 47 others wounded, blaming YPG militants for the explosion.
However, the so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said at least 36 people were killed and nearly 40 others wounded when an explosive device inside the fuel truck went off at a market in the city.
