A 10-day air offensive by Syria's regime against rebel areas of divided Aleppo and nearby villages has killed more than 400 people, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Wednesday.

The Britain-based group said that by Tuesday night the toll since December 15 from air strikes and a bombing campaign using barrels packed with TNT stood at 410, among them 117 children, 34 women, 30 rebel fighters and nine jihadists.
