Airwars assessment
Four civilians including three children died in an alleged Russian airstrike on Irbin in eastern Ghouta, local media reported – though the culprit remained unclear.
According to Radio Al Kul, “Russian warplanes struck Douma, Harasta, Irbin and Hamoreya in Eastern Ghouta with missiles loaded with cluster bombs and killed four people and wounded tens more.”
Syrian Press Center also blamed Russia, though it later published a report on its website referring only to “warplanes”.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
