Airwars assessment
Local sources reported that up to six people, including two women and two children, had died in shelling on Al Baleirmoon neighbourhood. Reports are conflicted as to whether Russia or the Assad regime was responsible.
Egypt News said that “a man, a woman and her daughter were killed due to warplane shelling in Al Baleirmoon.” Multiple sources, including Aletihad news, reported the use of cluster bombs. Aletihad news said that the bombs “killed 6 people including two women and a child and injured dozens and destroyed buildings.”
According to the Syrian Network for Human Rights, six civilians including two girls and two women died when “suspected Russian warplanes” fired missiles on the Al Baleirmoon neighborhood of Aleppo.
However, LCCSY and many other sources said that regime warplanes were responsible. Others did not identify the warplanes. It was unclear from Shaam News Network who carried out the attack. It reported clashes as the regime attempted “to advance towards Alcastello road, amid artillery and aerial bombardment by Assad’s forces and Russian aircraft over the region”. It said that three died and others were wounded.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
