UN Aid Convoy in Syria Hit by Airstrike
(Telegraph-UK) Josie Ensor - A UN aid convoy in Aleppo province in Syria was hit by air strikes carried out by either Syrian or Russian warplanes on Monday, minutes after the military declared the end of a ceasefire. More than a dozen were killed including Omar Barakat, director of the Syrian Red Crescent. Steffan de Mistura, the UN Syria envoy, said, "Our outrage at this attack is enormous...the convoy was the outcome of a long process of permission and preparations to assist isolated civilians."
