(Zaman Al Wasl)- Three civilians on Wednesday have been killed in Russian air strikes on aid vehicles near Azaz, a border town with Turkey in northern Aleppo province, activists and reporter said.
Russia's warplanes have carried out two air strikes on an aid warehouse near Bab al Salameh border crossing with Turkey, leaving 3 people, drivers and aid worker, dead, according to Zaman Al Wasl reporter.
Russia has intervened directly in the Syrian war on Sept. 30 with its own air campaign in support of Bashar al-Assad, whose forces are fighting insurgents backed by regional powers including Turkey.
Activists said attacking the Turkish-sponsored aid store was a Russian reprisal over shooting down its warplane on Tuesday.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said this week that Russia's airstrikes have killed 403 civilians, including 97 children under the age of 18.
