At least six fighters from al-Qaida's Syrian affiliate, the Nusra Front, were killed in a US-led coalition air strike on a base west of the northern city of Aleppo, a monitoring group said on Thursday. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which monitors violence in Syria through a network of sources, said the attack targeted a Nusra Front base in Aleppo's western outskirts after midnight.
