<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>Opposition activists said several other people were wounded in the attacks, which came as a three-month truce crumbled.</p>
<p>The air strikes on Idlib province have intensified over the past few weeks as the government appears to be preparing for an offensive on rebel-held areas east of the province to secure the main road that links the capital Damascus with the northern city of Aleppo.</p>

<p>Most of the casualties occurred in the village of Balyoun, according to opposition groups, with eight people killed.</p>

<p>Four people, including a child and two women, were killed in air strikes on the rebel-held village of Bara. Five others were killed in Ibdeita, and a child was killed in a nearby village.</p>
<p>Syrian troops launched a four-month offensive earlier this year on Idlib, which is dominated by al-Qaida-linked militants. The government offensive forced hundreds of thousands of civilians to flee their homes.</p>
<p>A fragile ceasefire halted the government advance in late August but has been repeatedly violated in recent weeks.</p>
