“All the targets in today’s Russian air raid over northern Homs were civilians,” Khaled Khoja, head of the Turkey-based Syrian National Coalition, wrote on his Twitter feed.
Khoja, who is in New York for a U.N. General Assembly meeting, said the civilians had been killed in five different areas.
“The targeted areas in today’s Russian air raid in Homs were those areas which fought ISIL and defeated it a year ago,” he said, using an acronym for Islamic State.
