A mass civilian casualty event reportedly took place on the Al Bedou neighbourhood of Raqqah city, following alleged US-led Coalition strikes, according to multiple local sources.
According to local monitors 40 civilians died, with reportedly a total of “around 60” suspected either killed or injured. The strikes were said to have targeted or struck an apartment building in the neighbourhood where civilians were located, and bodies were expected to be still under the rubble. Baladi reported on the significant material destruction caused including the “demolition of houses”.
According to tracked sources,”unprecedented American bombing that took place last night caused the collapse of a number of buildings in the vicinity of the municipal stadium” with the source adding that “a number of buildings cracked and collapsed in the area of the White Garden and Al Bedou neighborhood around the municipal stadium, which led to the fall of a large number of martyrs and wounded and many of those are trapped under the rubble”
At present information is limited, Airwars will update the entry when new information comes to the fore regarding civilians killed.
