ALEPPO (AA) - Russian warplanes carried out an airstrike on Aleppo University Hospital in Aleppo city center in Syria.
According to initial estimates, nine people were killed and 10 others wounded in the attack by SU-24-type Russian aircraft on Aleppo University Hospital, local sources said.
Fighting erupted on Nov. 27 between Assad regime forces and anti-regime armed groups in the western countryside of Aleppo province in northern Syria.
The anti-regime armed groups have made rapid progress from the western countryside toward the city center, capturing much of it by Saturday.
The armed groups took control of the town of Khan Shaykhun later Saturday, establishing control over all of Idlib province.
