US strike leveled Idlib building to the ground
The building which was targeted by the US long-range missiles was leveled to the ground on Saturday (August 31) leaving dozens of people killed and injured. 

A statement from US Central Command on US Forces strike against al-Qaida in Syria leadership in Idlib, Syria, commented on the incident:

“U.S. Forces conducted a strike against al-Qaida in Syria (AQ-S) leadership at a facility north of Idlib, Syria, Aug. 31, 2019. This operation targeted AQ-S leaders responsible for attacks threatening U.S. citizens, our partners, and innocent civilians. Additionally, the removal of this facility will further degrade their ability to conduct future attacks and destabilize the region. Northwest Syria remains a safe haven where AQ-S leaders actively coordinate terrorist activities throughout the region and in the West. With our allies and partners, we will continue to target violent extremists to prevent them from using Syria as a safe haven."

At least 40 people were killed in the attacks according to monitoring groups, while Orient News received reports of 26 killed people and 20 others injured.
