According to local sources, there were injuries to medical staff and material damage to the Omar Bin Abdul Aziz Hospital in the Maadi neighbourhood in Aleppo on July 16th 2016 after an alleged Russian or Syrian regime missile targeted the healthcare facility.
Other local sources, such as Radio Al Kul and @salqin also described that there were deaths but did not state the number. It reported that there were “martyrs, wounded, and massive destruction of residential buildings, and Omar Bin Abdul Aziz hospital was out of service as a result of the helicopters dropping naval mines on the neighbourhood of Maadi in the old Aleppo.”
There was a mixture of reports blaming both the Russian forces and the Syrian regime. Aleppo AMC posted on Facebook that the “Regime’s helicopters targeted with more than eight naval mines Omar Bin Abdul Aziz Hospital.”
The local time of the incident is unknown.
