Up to two civilians, including a woman and a child, were injured in alleged Russian or regime or Iranian strikes on Kafr Taal village on August 14, 2021.

According to the Syrian Civil Defense, “a two-year-old child was injured by missile strikes by the regime and Russia forces, this morning, Saturday, August 14, targeting civilian homes in Kafr Taal village”. However, @abo_aljod84 identified the child as being five years old.

@Sy24ria reported that both a woman and her child were injured in the shelling and attributed the strikes to the regime. The majority of other sources also gave similar information that a woman and child were injured.

Sources were conflicted as to who was responsible, with some blaming the regime for the strikes while @abo_aljod84 pointed to Russia, the regime, and Iran as responsible and @mzmgr941identified Russian and Iranian planes as flying reconnaissance in the area. Multiple sources identified both missiles and artillery shells as being used in the attack.
