In a major civilian casualty incident, up to 65 civilians (of which 52 were named) including at least 10 children and 11 women from multiple families died and as many as 100 more were injured in airstrikes on Idlib city, which reportedly centred on a popular vegetable market in the city. The majority of reports blamed Russia, though there were allegations against the Syrian regime \u2013 with other sources stating that it was unclear whether the Syrian regime or Moscow were responsible.<\/p>\n

Sources published disturbing images of the aftermath of the attack, which led to widespread destruction. There were numerous reports of body parts having been dispersed in the location of the strike, along with references to multiple \u201cbody bags\u201d.<\/p>\n

The lowest death count was given at 48 civilians by Insaan Rights Watch. According to Sky News Arabic \u201cRussian warplanes shelled in a market in Idlib killing dozens and wounding dozens more. Medical sources say they have counted 25 bodies including women and children \u201d<\/p>\n

Enab Baladi at some more details, reporting that \u201cnine teams of the civil defense were called to Idlib, in addition to the Red Cross. They were able to count 65 bodies along with12 bags of body parts. The teams continued to attempt to rescue people trapped under the rubble.\u201d<\/p>\n

Syrian Press Center was among sources that said people had limbs amputated and were \u201cseverely burned\u201d in the fire caused by the warplanes.<\/p>\n

Other sources blaming Russia included Orient, Jisrtv, Islam Memo and LCCSY.<\/p>\n

According to the Shaam News Network, \u201cRussian warplanes targeted the vegetable market during peak hours when hundreds of civilians had gathered to make their purchases ahead of Eid. Missiles targeted civilian homes and shops, resulting in massive destruction to buildings and shops and cars in the market.”<\/p>\n

According to the source, the death toll from the massacre reached 63 martyrs, including 16 children and 14 women, plus 12 missing people, including eight children who are considered dead. Additionally, some 70 civilians were wounded, filling hospitals in the city and its countryside\u201d.<\/p>\n

However, the source KWdeirwaza \u2013 who put the death toll at 60 including 22 children \u2013 attributed the event to regime jets. A number of other sources didn\u2019t apportion blame.<\/p>\n

Omar_madaniah, citing the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that \u201cRami Abdur-Rahman, the director of the Syrian observatory, says the warplanes could not be identified in order to keep Russia away from being accused.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jabal ALzaweya listed the following civilian fatalities and names of some of the missing. In addition the source reported six other unidentified bodies found, including three children, twelve body bags of body-parts and 100 wounded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","country":[246],"belligerent":[247],"strike_type":[],"cause_of_death":[],"targeted_belligerents":[],"strike_status":[],"civilian_harm_reported":[834],"civilian_harm_status":[839],"belligerent_assessment":[868],"geolocation_assessor":[939],"declassified_document":[900],"geolocation_status":[924],"observation":[],"munition":[],"casualty":[959,957,958],"impact":[],"documentation":[],"citation":[],"geolocation_observation":[],"protected_persons":[],"infrastructure":[],"infrastructure_affiliation":[],"infrastructure_declared_target":[],"infrastructure_destruction":[],"profession":[],"casualty_affiliation":[],"class_list":["post-34603","civ","type-civ","status-publish","hentry","country-syria","belligerent-russian-military","civilian_harm_reported-yes","civilian_harm_status-contested","belligerent_assessment-not-yet-assessed","geolocation_assessor-claire-augus","declassified_document-no","geolocation_status-complete","casualty-children","casualty-men","casualty-women"],"acf":{"latitude":35.93062,"longitude":36.63393,"geolocation_accuracy":"city","multiple_location_incident":null,"geolocations":[{"latitude":35.933456,"longitude":36.633803,"geolocation_accuracy":"nearby_landmark","primary_coordinate":true}],"geojson":"","show_geolocation_caption":false,"geojson_caption":"","media_geolocation":null,"geolocation_notes":"Reports of the incident mention the Idlib market (\u0627\u062f\u0644\u0628\u060c \u0633\u0648\u0642 \u0627\u0644\u062e\u0636\u0627\u0631), within the city of Idlib (\u0625\u062f\u0644\u0628), for which the generic coordinates are: 35.933456, 36.633803.
