Airwars assessment
Between four and eight civilians were killed – reportedly from one family – and others were wounded, when airstrikes struck Al-Marba’at town, local media said. According to sources, up to three children, a woman, and a man were killed in the raids.
Sources were conflicted as to who was to blame for the strikes. Some attributed blame to the Syrian regime while others pointed to Russian warplanes.
According to sources, the wounded – for which we have an unspecific number – were transferred to hospital.
Two to three raids were allegedly launched on the vicinity with long ranging missiles and RPG, with helicopters.
