Airwars assessment
Up to six civilians including women and children died in alleged Russian or regime airstrikes on Tal Mnes on August 25, 2019, according to local media.
Smart reported: “Three children and two women were killed and 10 civilians were taken to nearby field hospitals as a result of the regime’s warplanes shelling residential neighborhoods in the center of tal mnes village in the southern countryside of Idlib.”
The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SN4HR) put the death toll at one and named Abdul Razzaq Fawzi al Twaini as killed. It blamed the regime.
Edlib News Network named the others killed: Fatima Badr Al-Aboud, 36 years old woman, Maryam Jumaa Khalil Al-Ahmad, 35 years old woman, Mahmoud Taher Al-Aboud, 11 years old, Amer Taher Al-Aboud, 8 years old, Khaled Taher Al-Aboud, 5 years old.
Edlib media Centre said that four civilians died.
In a later post, SN4HR said that “at least five civilians (three children and two women), most of whom are from the same family, were killed as Syrian regime fixed- wing warplanes fired missiles on Talmennes town in the southeastern suburbs of Idlib governorate, for the second time on the same day, on August 25.” Tweets from various sources, including @adlbhamam1985 and @abds02747, also identified five civilians killed.
A tweet by @Ahmad_1alshble identified civilian’s homes as being struck and a tweet by @ufuk_sy pointed to the center of the town as the location of the strikes.
A video posted by @Ahmad_1alshble shows the dust cloud following the strikes over Tal Mnes and a video posted by @anasanas84 shows a bulldozer removing the rubble from the destruction caused by the strikes.
Most sources blamed the regime, though there were also reports of Russian actions.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
