Civilians killed by Russian-Assad jets in Hama province, Idlib

Russian warplanes and Assad militiamen shelled on Monday (May 13) the demilitarized zone (DMZ) of Hama and Idlib countryside, killing and injuring civilians, Orient correspondents said.

Assad helicopters dropped on Monday barrel bombs on Kafr Ein Village in Idlib countryside, killing two civilians. 

Earlier on Monday, Russian warplanes bombed on the White Helmets center in Kafrnabl town, injuring four civilians, including a white Helmets volunteer, and destroying the center and several vehicles.

Meanwhile, Russian warplanes and Assad helicopters targeted several villages and towns in Idlib and Hama countryside with hundreds of rockets and barrel bombs, killing and injuring civilians and causing severe damage.

Idlib countryside and Hama countryside are within the de-escalation zone reached by Russia and Turkey last September. Russian warplanes and Assad militiamen have killed hundreds of Syrians since the de-escalation deal reached.
