One to two civilians were reported killed, and others injured, in airstrikes on Al Hamidiah in Ma`arat Al Nu`man, Idlib, on August 18th.
Shaam News documented “two martyrs killed in Maarat al-Nu’man”, while other sources cited one civilian killed in the incident.
@IdlibPlus tweeted “a civilian martyr and a number of injuries were reported as a result of Russian warplanes targeting the outskirts of Ma’rat Al-Nu`man city in the southern countryside of Idlib with airstrikes.”
Syrian Human Rights Committee identified one of the civilians killed as Abdul Qadir Mahmoud Al-Asfar.
Smart News also reported “many wounded” and @ufuk_sy tweeted that there were “wounded in the bombing of the Russian occupier’s warplanes.”
The majority of sources attributed the attack to Russian forces but @ZaitunAgency attributed the strikes to Russia in one tweet and the regime in another tweet.
