The Latest on the conflict in Syria (all times local):12:50 p.m.An opposition monitoring group and a news agency linked with the Islamic State group say a suicide attacker has targeted Turkish-backed rebels in northern Syria. The Islamic State group's Aamaq news agency says the "martyrdom" attack occurred in the village of Kuliyah, west of the Syrian border town of Jarablus. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says Wednesday's attack was carried out by a North African IS member. Turkish troops and Turkey-backed rebels have been fighting Kurdish-led forces and IS since Turkey's incursion into Syria on Aug. 24. The suicide attack is the first by IS to target Turkish-backed rebels since they entered Syria last week.
