Syrian war planes hit ISIS-run bakery, training camp
Syrian war planes hit a bakery run by Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) in the city of Raqqa, killing at least 17 people, in air raids on Saturday that also hit a major training camp used by the group for a second day running, a group monitoring the war said. ● The air strikes on Raqqa, Islamic State's stronghold some 400 km northeast of Damascus, also hit a building used as an Islamic court, and another of the group's offices, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said. Quoting activists on the ground, Rami Abdulrahman, founder of the Observatory, said the bakery was run by the militant group. He said those killed included at least eight civilians and an unknown number of Islamic State activists. Islamic State, which has seized swathes of territory in Iraq and Syria, drove the last Syrian government forces out of Raqqa province in late August when its fighters seized an air base, capturing and later executing scores of Syrian soldiers. Raqqa is the main Syrian foothold of Islamic State, where it provides electricity and water, pays salaries, controls traffic, and runs nearly everything from bakeries and banks to schools, courts and mosques.
