In Syria, four children were killed Friday as Russian-backed Syrian government forces leveled homes in a village in Idlib. The attack came one day after a similar assault south of Idlib killed five children. One day prior to that, Kurdish fighters with the U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces killed three civilians, including a child, in a rocket attack near the Turkish-controlled city of Afrin north of Aleppo. UNICEF reports that, since July, at least 54 children were killed or injured in Syria.
