One man was killed and at least one civilian, a woman, was injured by alleged Russian or regime airstrikes or artillery strikes on the village of Tal Wasit, Hama on July 19th 2020.

Syrian Civil Defense reported: “A civilian was killed and a woman was seriously wounded today, Sunday, July 19, by artillery and missile shelling by the regime forces, which was hit by the village of Tal Wasit in the western countryside of Hama.”

Alhadath Syria reported others were injured. The majority of sources reported only one woman was injured who was the wife of the civilian killed.

Multiple sources reported the civilian was a displaced civilian from east Hama countryside working as a sheepherder.

The sources attributed the strike to multiple belligerent groups. Multiple sources claim the strike was due to Assad’s but other claim Russian Militia were responsible. @hadikhraat tweeted that Iranian militias were also responsible. Therefore this is a contested strike.
