They all said they cover it.
We see it.
We report with just one agenda: the truth.
The Israel Defense Forces, as it commonly does, has neither confirmed nor denied the attack. It is the fourth airstrike attributed to Israel since the start of the year, and the second attack on the Aleppo airport in the last six months, according to the watchdog group The Syrian Observatory For Human Rights.
Following the attack, Syria’s transportation ministry said it would have to redirect flights bringing earthquake aid to northwestern Syria due to the airport’s closure.
