Twenty-two were killed in Aleppo, among them three who were killed by air raids of the Syrian regime on the town of al-Safeera and three others in the same town who were killed by warplanes which targeted them in their cars. A woman from Tal Rif’at in Aleppo was slaughtered with her three sons in Saqilbia (rural Hama) at the hands of the Shabiha, whilst the family was travelling from Latakkia to Aleppo, and two others were killed by sniper fire.

In Idlib, 16 were killed, among them seven from the same family who were killed by shelling on the al-Dabshia village, as well as two civilians from Abo al-Dhuhoor who were killed when warplanes bombed a wedding.
