Seven to eight civilians were reported killed, including two women and four children, and at least people 20 injured in an alleged Russian or Assad regime airstrike on Bansh, according to the Shaam News Network and the Syrian Network for Human Rights.
Shaam posted a video depicting the aftermath of the alleged attack, stating that an entire family was killed and that the death toll was eight. It also claimed this was the fifth time a local truce between Jaish Al Fatah and the Assad regime had been broken.
According to the Syrian Network, seven non-combatants died, three houses were destroyed and three further homes were majorly damaged. The monitors also stressed that an agreed truce between the Syrian regime and the rebel Al Fateh Army had been broken.
Omar Hajj Kaddour, a local media activist, told the Syrian Network: “I was in my house when the first airstrike happened at around 12 pm. I went there to film the location. Then the second airstrike was launched while I was trying to reach the house. The warplanes shelled a house, which killed eight individuals and their bodies were turned to body parts. Bansh is among other cities that have an agreement with government forces. But the Russian warplanes breached the truce and shelled the city.”
