Airwars assessment
In multiple alleged Russian or Assad regime airstrikes which struck residential buildings, in Aleppo’s Al Maysar neighbourhood, a family of five and an elderly man were reportedly killed.
BBC reported that “according to opposition source, Russian warplanes launched extensive shelling in Kafr hamra and Al-Maysar.”
AMC News blamed the Assad regime for the strike, while Al Jazeera pointed to both the regime and Russia.
But reports by Smart New, Halab Today and Jisrtv attributed the event to solely Russia.
According to the Syrian Network for Human Rights, there were “no less than six raids” on Al Maysar – though Halab Today pout the number as high as 12.
Alabary News reported that “warplanes thought to be Russian struck a building and killed a family of a mother, a father, and three children who were living in the building.”
Halab News named identified five victims, seen below, including two children.
Qasioun said that seven other civilians were injured in the airstrike, adding that many were in a critical condition.
