Syrian war planes on Tuesday bombed an olive press factory in the north part of the country, killing and wounding dozens of people, the Associated Press reports:

Two activist groups — the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights and the Local Coordination Committees — say the factory is west of the city of Idlib. The LCC says at least 20 people were killed and many others wounded in the raid, while the Observatory said “tens were killed or wounded.”
