ALEPPO ARMENIAN DISTRICT HIT BY BARREL BOMBS
10:45 * 03.10.14
Barrel bombs made of napalm have hit Aleppo’s Armenian neighborhood,
Nor Kyugh, burning down seven apartments and causing a major damage.
According to the local Armenian newspaperGandzasar, the fire was
eventually extinguished by young men from a local club who immediately
rushed for help.
Napalm, an easily burned substance, was banned the United Nations in
1980. The organization declared its use as a military crime against
civilians.
Earlier, an exploded makeshift rocket was reported to have left two
Armenians injured in the district.
