Syria Airstrikes Kill Dozens in Aleppo
(Deutsche Welle-Germany) At least 42 people were killed and another 17 wounded critically on Sunday in Syrian government airstrikes in Aleppo, said Rami Abdurrahman, director of the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. The aerial bombardment of rebel areas in Aleppo began on Dec. 15, killing more than 200 people and destroying many residential buildings. Barrel bombs dropped from helicopters are filled with explosives and fuel that cause widespread damage on impact.
