Meanwhile, an activist group said that the pro-government gunmen have kidnapped more than 300 people in northwestern Syria in retaliation for the abduction of 42 Shiite Muslims, mostly women and children, who were snatched Thursday from a bus.

The UN Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict, Zainab Hawa Bangura, called for the release of the women.

She said „allegations of abduction and rape of women and girls by armed groups have been received.”
