Aleppo bombing could amount to war crimes: UN
UN envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura has said he was "appalled and shocked" by indiscriminate targeting of civilians in Syria's Aleppo which "could amount to war crimes". "Nothing justifies the use of disproportionate and indiscriminate weapons," he added. The attacks raised the death toll in the three-day old offensive to around 41 civilians, including 16 children, rights groups said.
