Five civilians were killed at the hands of the Islamic State group, and six others, including one child and one woman, were killed at the hands of Hayaat Tahrir Al-Sham, while four civilians were killed at the hands of Turkistan Islamic Party.

The report also documents 126 civilians, including 24 children and 14 women, were killed at the hands of other parties.

The report called on the UN Security Council to take additional steps to protect civilians, and stressed the importance of referring the Syrian case to the International Criminal Court (ICC).

The rights group added that all those who are responsible should be held accountable including the Russian regime "whose involvement in war crimes has been repeatedly proven".

Bombing of Idlib province in north Syria by Russia and the regime resumed at the beginning of November following a two-month lull.

The war in Syria has killed more than 500,000 people and displaced millions since it erupted in 2011.
