(New York Times) Anne Barnard - Syrian government aircraft hit the rebel-held Damascus suburb of Daraya with incendiary bombs for the third straight day on Wednesday, according to local council members, who said the weapons were packed with substances akin to napalm. Incendiary weapons have been used at least 18 times in the past nine weeks, Human Rights Watch said in a report issued this week, mostly in and around Aleppo. The group said that activists and residents had reported at least 40 other cases, and that it had confirmed 18 through video footage and other evidence. An international agreement signed by 113 nations, including Russia, forbids the use of incendiary weapons on areas with concentrations of civilians. However, Human Rights Watch said footage broadcast on June 18 showed a Russian attack aircraft at Russia's air base in the Syrian province of Latakia armed with RBK-500 ZAB-2.5SM incendiary bombs. 2016-08-18 00:00:00Full Article
