Russian airstrikes in Syria have killed at least 446 people, more than a third of them civilians, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group said on Friday.
Russia launched an air war on opponents of the Syrian regime of President Bashar al-Assad on September 30 and says it is targeting the ISIS and other “terrorists”. Of the total killed since then, 151 are civilians and include 38 children and 35 women, Observatory chief Rami Abdel Rahman said.
The strikes have also killed 295 combattants, including 75 ISIS and 31 members of Al-Qaeda’s Syrian affiliate, Al-Nusra Front, Abdel Rahman said.
