Airwars assessment
Up to five civilians including three children and a woman were reported killed and eight others including a volunteer with the Syrian Civil Defense injured in alleged Russian airstrikes or Syrian regime artillery attacks on Al Bara in Jabal al-Zawiya, south of Idlib, Syria on November 15th, 2019 according to local sources. Step Agency said the Russian airstrikes which attacked Al Bara were loaded with vacuum missiles.
Mohamed, Jenna and Safa al-hameedi, children from the same family, were among those killed by the airstrikes and @media_idlib reported that their father “Ali Hajj Hamidi and his wife” were saved from under the rubble. Tareq Aloush from the Syrian Civil Defense said that five people including a woman and three children were killed and eight others including a volunteer with SCD were injured as a result of a Russian airstrike on Bara in Idlib.
The Syrian Civil Defense captioned a picture showing three children saying “Mohamed, Jenna and Safa al-Hameedi, the people killed by criminal missiles while playing at home on Friday, where our teams found them together under the rubble.”
A tweet from @ramiswidfree identified the Civil Defense member that was injured as the “ambulance system driver” and pointed out that three civilian homes were struck and a man and a woman were rescued from the rubble.
While most of the sources blamed Russia, including the Syrian Network for Human Rights, Baladi, Step Agency, Shaam and others, SMART blamed both the Syrian and Russian forces by saying “On November 15, 2019, civilians were killed and wounded by shelling by Russian and Syrian regime forces in the town of al-Bara near Idlib in northern Syria.”
The local time of the incident is unknown.
The victims were named as:
