9 women & children among casualties of US missile strike – Homs governor
Via comment by EIEIO on Bomb the Usual Arabs
Speaking to RT Arabic, Talal al-Barazi said the majority of victims of the missile strike carried out by the United States on Friday morning had been local villagers.
“Undoubtedly, the American attack on the Shayrat air force base was aimed at supporting terrorist groups and weakening the fighting capacity of the army of the Syrian Army, which is fighting the terrorists,” Barazi told RT. “According to recent reports, the attack resulted in the deaths of five soldiers and nine civilians and the wounding of thirteen women and children who were in the nearby Shayrat village.”
“This aggression towards Syria is not the first and is unlikely to be the last.”
Syria’s official SANA news agency earlier on Friday reported that “an American missile also hit the village of Al-Hamrat, which killed four civilians including a child.”
“Another seven civilians were wounded when a missile hit homes in Al-Manzul, 4 kilometres (two and a half miles) away from the Shayrat air base,” it added, citing sources.
