Six children from the same family of Ali and Aqla al-Hajj al-Hamoud al-Hweet were killed following an aerial offensive on the village of Al Mimari, local sources said.

Initial reports by Sharqiya and Marsad Al Hasaka did not identify a culprit and referred only to “bombing”. The Syrian Network for Human Rights alleged that “International Coalition warplanes missiles fired on houses” in the village resulting in the death of the six children.

In addition to those killed, Euphrates Post documented one wounded girl, and also held the US-led Coalition responsible.

Amer Hewidi said that two girls and a boy from Ali al-Hajj al-Hamwit died and two boys and a girl from Aqla al-Jubouri al-Hamoud al-Hweet died, contradicting Marsad Al Hasaka who reported that all killed were male.

Amer Hewidi identified the wounded girl as the daughter of Hasnawi al-Jubouri al-Hamoud al-Hewitt, and described her injuries as minor. It blamed the Coalition.

The six children were buried together in one grave, amid fears the area would be targeted again, according to Al Khabour.
