Six killed as Assad regime continues to breach ceasefire in Idlib countryside

Assad regime's militias intensified shelling on the demilitarized zone (DMZ) of Idlib countryside on Friday (September 13), killing six civilians and injuring others, violating a ceasefire announced by Russia on the 31st of August, Orient correspondent said.  

Assad artillery shells targeted on Friday night Maarat al-Numan city, killing three civilians, including a child and injuring seven others.

Assad cluster munition rockets targeted on Friday morning civilian homes in Kafranbel town, killing a man and a woman and injuring three other civilians.

A civilian was also killed as Assad warplanes targeted Sangara village.

On Thursday, Assad and Russian warplanes and Assad artillery shells targeted several villages and towns, including Kafr Rumah, Rakaya Sijneh, Rakaya Sijneh and Kafranbel, killing a school girl and a man and injuring four children.

Assad-Russian warplanes have committed dozens of massacres in Idlib and Hama countryside since they launched their bombing campaign on the 30th of April, largely violating the de-escalation zone deal reached between Russia and Turkey last September.
