(AP) AZAZ, Syria – Syrian fighter jets screamed through the sky Wednesday over this rebel-held town, dropping bombs that leveled the better part of a poor neighborhood and wounded scores of people, many of them women and children buried under piles of rubble. Activists said more than 20 people were killed.
전라북도출장업소 army vehicles are scattered around Azaz, left over from those battles.
As the Assad regime’s grip on the ground slips, however, it is increasingly targeting rebel areas with attack helicopters and fighter jets – weapons the rebels can’t challenge.
Rebels and residents of the Aleppo countryside say the army rarely hits rebel targets, striking instead at residential areas and killing civilians.
The Azaz bombings appeared to fit that pattern.
The first blast seemed to come out of nowhere, shaking the city’s downtown and sending up a huge gray cloud of smoke that sent terrified residents rushing through the streets looking for cover.
Not long after, another jet appeared, dropping bombs nearby.
“We were in the house and heard this plane overhead,” said a 36-year-old woman who gave her name as Um Hisham. “There was this huge boom that made my mother pass out in the kitchen.”
