A Syrian government warplane has crashed in a built-up area of the north-western town of Ariha, killing 12 people, activists told the BBC.
The United Kingdom-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) activist group said the crash occurred amid bombing raids.
Ariha was one of the last government strongholds in Idlib when it was captured by rebels in May.
The fall of the Ariha left most of Idlib province, bordering Turkey, in rebel hands.
The SOHR said dozens had also been injured in the crash.
In January, officials said at least 35 soldiers had been killed in a cargo plane crash in Idlib province.
