One adult male civilian, was killed and ten others injured in an alleged Russian airstrike on a charity hospital in Anadan, according to local sources.
The Syrian Network for Human Rights reported that Abdul Rahman Abeid died when Russian warplanes fired missiles on Anadan.
A later report by SN4HR gave more details, explaining that the victim was an assistant surgeon from the city of Efreen in Aleppo who worked in the charity hospital. They said that he was married and a father of two children and was killed when alleged Russian planes struck with cluster munitions, targeting the hospital in which he worked.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights also blamed Russian, but referred to the one victim as “a nurse“, adding that 10 others were killed in the raid and that the hospital was put out of service.
Activists told the Shaam News Network that Russian planes carried out the air strike using highly explosive missiles, resulting in destruction of large sections of the hospital, the death of one employee and the injury of others.
