Airwars assessment
Up to three civilians – a man, his daughter, and another girl – were injured in Al Sahara, Western Aleppo, by artillery allegedly fired by the Syrian regime and/or Russian military on September 2, 2023.
All three injured in the evening shelling were civilians, according to SCD News, and both girls were children. The shelling had also caused a blacksmith’s workshop in the village to catch on fire. Syrian Civil Defense teams treated those affected, extinguished the fire, and reported no additional casualties. @baladinetwork was the only source to report a lower casualty estimate of two wounded.
Over 10 shells had struck Al Sahara, Atareb Media reported, though sources varied on the source of the artillery fire. Some local outlets — including Atareb — labeled Russian forces as responsible. Others, like Step News, said the shells were fired by the Syrian regime. Multiple sources mentioned that rockets were used in the attack.
The incident occured in the evening.
