“Enam belas warga sipil, termasuk seorang anak, tewas dan sekitar 50 lainnya luka-luka dalam serangan udara di jalan utama di kota Hammuriyeh,” kata Direktur SOHR Rami Abdel Rahman.
Belum jelas apakah semua yang terluka merupakan warga sipil atau ada pula pejuang, kata dia, menambahkan bahwa jumlah korban tewas bisa saja meningkat karena sejumlah korban yang cedera berada dalam kondisi serius.
Wilayah Timur Ghouta di luar Damaskus telah berada di bawah pengepungan pemerintah yang menghancurkan sejak 2012, dan juga menjadi target reguler serangan udara dan tembakan artileri rezim.
Lebih dari 320.000 orang telah tewas di Suriah sejak konflik dimulai pada Maret 2011 dengan protes anti-pemerintah diktator. (banan/arrahmah.com)
