Most sources blamed Syrian regime rocket launches and barrel bombs.
There were no specific reports indicating the number of wounded civilians – though reports noted that people were injured.
According to multiple sources, including Al Jazeera, the raids were to counter a “a large ground offensive on the armed opposition sites in the area”.
