Up to six civilians including a girl died in an alleged Russian or Assad regime airstrike on al Latamna, Hama, according to local media.

Sources were not clear whether or not Khadija (Um Daher) and Hussein Al-Saleh (Abu Hussein) were two people or one person. In this instance they have been listed as two people.

According to Syrian News Desk, “a young girl and an elderly woman were killed and more than ten civilians injured when Russian warplanes targeted  the town of Al-Lataminah with more than six missiles”.
