A US strike has killed more than 100 Al-Qaeda fighters at a training camp in northwestern Syria, the Pentagon said Friday.

The air strike occurred Thursday at a training camp in Idlib province that had been operational since 2013, Pentagon spokesman Navy Captain Jeff Davis said. 

"The removal of this training camp disrupts training operations and discourages hardline Islamist and Syrian opposition groups from joining or cooperating with Al-Qaeda on the battlefield," Davis said.
