Syrians killed in air strikes

AIR strikes have killed at least 11 civilians and wounded dozens over 24 hours in a rebelheld region near the Syrian capital despite a fragile truce, residents and a monitor said.

A strike on Tuesday killed eight civilians, half of them children, and wounded dozens in the Eastern Ghouta enclave.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported fresh air raids on the Eastern Ghouta town of Arbin and its outskirts yesterday, saying at least three more civilians were killed.
