Suicide attacker detonates herself in Idlib

A suicide attacker detonated her explosive belt on Tuesday (January 29) inside a building in the city of Idlib in the north of Syria, injuring a number of people and causing damage, Orient News correspondent said.   

Hayet Tahrir al-Sham, a group previously affiliated to al-Qaeda, said on its media outlet, Ibaa, that the woman presumably belongs to ISIS.

Orient News correspondent said two people were killed in the attack and many others were injured as ambulances were rushing to the place of the attack.

No group has claimed responsibility for the attack.   

Idlib in the largest part of Syria controlled by anti-Assad groups with a population swollen by Assad regime's and its allies' advances in other parts of the country.
