Airwars Assessment
(Previous Incident Code: R1354)
Two civilian males died and at least two more were wounded – including members of the White Helmets – in an airstrike on Kafr Nabil, according to local media – though sources were conflicted as to whether this was the work of Russia or the Syrian regime.
@syriapost1 was among several sources pointing to Russia and putting the death toll at two “with several more wounded.”
However, Qasioun, the Syrian Network for Human Rights and Enabbaladi blamed the regime. The latter reported that “in the morning [Oct 20th], two members of the civil defense in the city of Kafr Nabl were injured by heavy machine guns targeting the city from warplanes”. They also mention that there was damage to a fire engine.
Rfsmediaoffice joined other sources in reporting that members of the White Helmets were wounded. The figures was put at either two or three.
