(Zaman Al Wasl)- The Civil Defense has recovered 2436 bodies from under the rubble, including 436 women, since last April, the volunteer organization said Tuesday.
Most of the victims lost their lives in air strikes by the Syrian and Russia forces on northwestern Syria, according to the White Helmets statement.
The Russian-backed regime forces have bombed out of service and destroyed at least 225 civil facilities in northwestern Syria since last November, the Syrian Response Coordination Group said Sunday.
The regime offensive in Idlib province and parts of Aleppo has displaced more than 1,041000 people from their homes and killed 700 people, including 91 women, 212 children and 17 rescue workers, over the past three months, the group said.
According to the local monitoring group, Russia and regime airstrikes have targeted 20 refugee shelters, 88 educational facilities, 9 centers for Civil Defense agency, 32 health centers, 8 ambulances, 14 furnaces and a bakery, 31 worship, and 23 various facilities such as water and power plants.
Idlib's skies were completely free of Russian and Syrian regime warplanes last Friday as a cease-fire deal took hold in Syria's northwestern province, the last rebel stronghold.
The truce, brokered by Turkey and Russia, halted a terrifying three-month air and ground campaign that killed hundreds and sent 1 million people fleeing toward the Turkish border.
