Airwars Assessment
(Previous Incident Code: R1362)
In what looks to have been a Syrian regime action, an elderly man and his son were reported killed by an airstrike in Tarei village, Idlib.
LCCSY initially appeared to blame Russia, but in a later post attributed the deaths to the Syrian regime.
Most other sources also pointed to the regime. According to the Syrian Network for Human Rights, for example, “two civilians (an elderly man and his son), died as a result of the bombing by government warplanes with missiles.”
A number of other sources didn’t apportion blame.
