BEIRUT–Syrian government air strikes killed 31 civilians including 12 children in the rebel-held Eastern Ghouta region near Syria’s capital Damascus on Wednesday, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
It said Syrian government air strikes and artillery hit the towns of Douma, Beit Sawa and Hammouriyeh in the rebel-controlled suburbs. The bombing also injured 65 people, the Britain-based war monitoring group said.
