At least nine pro-regime fighters died in an overnight strike in northern Syria blamed on Israel, a monitor said today.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based monitor, said Monday that those killed included at least six Syrians and that Iranian fighters were also stationed at the base.
