Up to six civilians including a woman and her children died and as many as dozens more were wounded in an airstrike on Kafr Gom, according to local media – though sources were conflicted as to whether this was the work of Russia or the Assad regime. Many sources noted the use of cluster bombs in the attack – and published images of the remnants of these weapons.

According to the Smart News Agency, “Russian warplanes launched raids using cluster bombs on Kafr Gom village in the countryside west of Aleppo, killing three children and a woman, and wounding seven others, in the preliminary toll.”

Other sources blaming Russia included Halab Today (who said that four children and their mother died), Step News Agency and Enabbaladi, who put the death toll as high as six including four children.

There was some confused reporting from the Shaam News Network, who initially pointed at the regime but then appeared to change its position and attribute the event to Moscow.

The Syrian Network for Human Rights, AleppoAMC and @AksAlsear were among other sources naming the regime as the culprit.

According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights “helicopters bombed areas in Kafr Gom”, resulting in the deaths of “at least five people including a woman, her daughter and another child. Others were also injured – most of them women and children.”

A report by Orient said that “dozens more civilians were injured”.

Halab News listed the named victims and also noted two other unknown children casualties.
