A young girl named Qamar was killed by alleged Russian or Assad regime airstrikes in the al Ferdos neighborhood of Aleppo, according to local media. Sources also reported further civilians trapped under the rubble.

Qasioun and Halab news blamed Russia, but most others were silent on the identity of those responsible.

@Shahed_alep tweeted, “warplanes aimed at the neighborhoods of Al Mashad, Salahuddin and Al Fardous with heavy machine guns.”

@AleppoAMC tweeted that two barrel bombs were used, while Shahid-ayan pointed directly to “shelling by Assad”.
