Airwars Assessment
(Previous Incident Codes: R1524RS1663)
Between one and five civilians were killed – including three children and a woman – and as many as dozens more were wounded in an alleged airstrike which struck Al Maysar, Aleppo on the morning of the 22nd.
There is conflicted reporting on who was to blame for the alleged airstrikes, with sources such as Al Jazeera blaming the Syrian regime. However most sources attributed blame to Russian warplanes.
Al Jazeera claimed that poisonous chloride gas was used, however none of the other sources support this claim, despite evidence to suggest that the gas was being used during other incidents of the Russia campaign in November 2016. There were also multiple reports that explosive barrels had been dropped.
According to @ZaitonMagazin, a family of five were killed.
Many sources reported that explosive barrel bombs and parachute missiles were used in the alleged raid.
Upsetting footage shows a young girl being rescued from the rubble. She is one of up to 24 alleged injured casualties.
More video evidence shows a man weeping over the loss of his baby son who was killed in his home.
