Airstrikes, targeting the village of Marj al-Zuhour in the countryside of Idlib, killed up to nine civilians, reportedly from the same family, including one woman and three children, and injured up to another 24. Sources were conflicted as to whether this was the work of Russia or the Assad regime.

Most sources put the death toll at eight, adding that the victims were from the same family. The twitter account Tahrir Al Sham identified the family as the Emad al-Khalil family. Reportedly, one woman and three children were among the victims. Meanwhile, the number of wounded spanned from two to 24.

Among the sources who identified a culprit, most attributed the incident to Russia. LCCSY reported that “Russian warplanes carried out a thermobaric missile attack on the Marj Zuhur village.” A handful, however, blamed the Syrian regime.
