Airwars assessment

An unspecified number of civilians were wounded in two raids on Termanin, according to local media. Sources all blamed Russian warplanes.

One source reported that “The raid wasn’t on the headquarters of the Corps  [ie failaq al sham] but on the homes of displaced civilians”.

In addition, Enabaladi reported that “a long-range missile believed to have been fired from the Russian battleships in the Mediterranean fell on the outskirts of the town of Tarmanin in the northern suburb of Idlib and repeated bombing on the same area but by the Russian warplanes, causing civilian wounded.”

The incident occured in the morning.
