Maternity Hospital in Syria Is Hit by Air Strike; Two Visitors at Hospital Killed,Three Wounded

A maternity hospital in Syria's Idlib province -- supported by Save the Children -- has been hit by an air strike, the Euro News website reports today (July 29, 2016).

Two visitors to the hospital have been killed and three others wounded in the attack.

It is unclear who conducted the raid, but the area is under rebel control, and has been subject to Russian and Syrian government assaults in the past.

Amnesty International condemned the bombing, saying "Deliberate attacks on hospitals and medical facilities are serious violations of the laws of war and can never be justified."
