(Previous Incident Codes: R2080 RS2220 )
A young man was killed in Kafr Zita, however there is confusion as to how he died.
VDC reported that he was victim of Russian troops, and they listed him as from Kafr Zita, but do not specify where he was killed.
There are no reports of others civilian casualties or wounded.
Other sources reported that he died due to injuries obtained during combat fighting from a few days previously. Images published show him holding an AK-47, and another shows him taking a selfie with ground artillery being fired.
It is unclear how he died, where he died, or whether or not he was a militant.
