Between nine and 11 civilians were killed in airstrikes on Sawaneh according to local sources – though reports were conflicted as to whether this was the work of Russia or the Assad regime.
Shaam News Network reported: “Russian aviation has committed a massacre after midnight last night against civilians in the town of Sawana, southwestern city of Palmyra, eastern Homs, and claimed the lives of 11 martyrs and almost 50 wounded.”
ARA also put the death toll at 11, adding that “among the dead were two brothers who moved to the city of Palmyra recently, Basil Arif al-Khoja and Obeid Arif al-Khoja.”
However, the Syrian Network for Human Rights said that at least seven died in regime shelling.
Meanwhile, the Violations Documentation Center identified nine victims.
