"The BBC has obtained shocking footage from the besieged area of Eastern Ghouta in Syria where 200 people have been killed in the last two weeks, including 50 children.

Since mid-November 2017, the estimated 393,000 people trapped there have been subjected to air strikes, shelling and bombardment on an almost daily basis by government forces and their allies"

I think this is disgraceful...Assad the Butcher strikes again.

If there are insurgents hiding out there, or being protected there, that would explain the bombing. Unfortunately in such instances there are always civilian casualties.
And he gets help from Russia in this.
It is interesting to see the fighting in Afrin now, as Erdogan goes after the Kurds who are supported by the US. They want recognition for their part in defeating IS.
Meanwhile Assad continues his war in Idlib, which was supposed to be a conflict free zone under the terms of the Astana agreement. The signatories to this, Russia, Turkey and Iran have predictably not stayed in alliance fur long. Russia has given the nod to Turkey to carry on in Afrin despite being broadly sympathetic to the Kurds previously. And all bar Assad look nervously at the Iranians.
Confused? The confusion is killing us, not literally US tho luckily
