Syria drone attack kills at least 100 people in Homs

Funerals have been held for some of the victims of a drone attack on a Syrian military academy in the western city of Homs.

At least 100 people were killed, including at least 50 civilians.

The Syrian army blamed the attack on "terrorist groups backed by known international forces". There was no immediate claim from the rebels and jihadists battling the government in the country's civil war.

The drone attack is believed to have been launched from opposition-held areas north-west of Homs.
