On the night of September 23, 2023, in Sarmin, Idlib, an incident with contested responsibility\u2014reportedly either by Syrian regime forces or the Russian military\u2014struck an agricultural area, injuring a civilian man, which was confirmed by multiple sources including the White Helmets organization.<\/p>\n

The civilian injured was reportedly a farmer who was picking figs in a residential area, when the projectiles struck. The strike was attributed to have been from the Syrian regime or the Russian military. It is contested whether it was a rocket bombing, missile strike, or artillery shelling by different local news sources on Twitter. The White Helmets of the Syrian Civil Defense were photographed helping the injured civilian, and they reported his injuries as minor superficial injuries and followed up with him. However, @AsharqNewsSYR identified the farmer\u2019s injuries as \u201cserious\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","country":[246],"belligerent":[247],"strike_type":[432],"cause_of_death":[448],"targeted_belligerents":[],"strike_status":[830],"civilian_harm_reported":[834],"civilian_harm_status":[839],"belligerent_assessment":[],"geolocation_assessor":[],"declassified_document":[900],"geolocation_status":[920],"observation":[],"munition":[],"casualty":[957],"impact":[1004],"documentation":[],"citation":[],"geolocation_observation":[],"protected_persons":[],"infrastructure":[906],"infrastructure_affiliation":[],"infrastructure_declared_target":[],"infrastructure_destruction":[],"profession":[],"casualty_affiliation":[],"class_list":["post-102813","civ","type-civ","status-publish","hentry","country-syria","belligerent-russian-military","strike_type-airstrike-and-or-artillery","cause_of_death-heavy-weapons-and-explosive-munitions","strike_status-contested-strike","civilian_harm_reported-yes","civilian_harm_status-contested","declassified_document-no","geolocation_status-unassigned","casualty-men","impact-food","infrastructure-agriculture"],"acf":{"latitude":"","longitude":"","geolocation_accuracy":"","multiple_location_incident":null,"geolocations":null,"geojson":"","show_geolocation_caption":false,"geojson_caption":"","media_geolocation":null,"geolocation_notes":"","geolocation_sources":null,"show_internal_notes":false,"internal_geolocation_notes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/civ\/102813","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/civ"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/civ"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=102813"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"belligerent","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/belligerent?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"strike_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/strike_type?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"cause_of_death","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cause_of_death?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"targeted_belligerents","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/targeted_belligerents?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"strike_status","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/strike_status?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"civilian_harm_reported","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/civilian_harm_reported?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"civilian_harm_status","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/civilian_harm_status?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"belligerent_assessment","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/belligerent_assessment?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"geolocation_assessor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/geolocation_assessor?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"declassified_document","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/declassified_document?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"geolocation_status","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/geolocation_status?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"observation","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/observation?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"munition","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/munition?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"casualty","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/casualty?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"impact","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/impact?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"documentation","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/documentation?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"citation","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/citation?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"geolocation_observation","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/geolocation_observation?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"protected_persons","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/protected_persons?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"infrastructure","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/infrastructure?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"infrastructure_affiliation","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/infrastructure_affiliation?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"infrastructure_declared_target","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/infrastructure_declared_target?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"infrastructure_destruction","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/infrastructure_destruction?post=102813"},{"taxonomy":"profession","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/airwars.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profession?post=102813"},{"ta
