According to Step News Agency, “two people were killed and a number were wounded in several Russian air raids on the village of Al Amqeya and an air raid on the village of Al’inakawi in Sahal Al Ghab in the western countryside of Hama.”
On April 27th, the White Helmets reported: “The death of martyrs and the occurrence of several casualties, with people missing under the rubble, after night air raids by Russian warplanes on civilian houses in #Al Amqeya and Al’inakawi in the countryside of Hama.” Qasioun News explicitly stated there had been no reports of civilian casualties in Al’inakawi.
However, Orient News pointed to both the regime and Russia, reporting that “the planes of Russia allied to the sectarian militia Assad launched raids on Friday [Arpil 16th] on the village of Al’inakawi in Sahl Al Ghab, and the village of Tal Hawash in the northern Hama, killing seven civilians.”
Horrya pointed to the regime, reporting that “Al-Assad forces shelled Al’inakawi village in Sahl Al Ghab, around the village of Al Karakat in Jabal Shashbo, and in the villages of Haskariya and Al Samah, north of Hama.”
The incident occured around midnight.
