Two civilians were killed – an uncle and nephew – and two or more people injured in alleged Russian airstrikes on the Myassar neighbourhood of Aleppo.
Local media activist Hassan al Ahmad posted an image of the dead boy with the comment: “This is how Syria’s children are being killed as if their blood is cheap. A child martyr died today in al Mayssar neighbourhood in Aleppo by the treacherous Russian planes.” The boy’s image was later used in a tweet relating to civilians allegedly killed in Raqqa.
