Two hospitals bombed in Aleppo

Unidentified warplanes have bombed two hospitals in the northern Syrian city of Aleppo, injuring dozens of people, a war monitoring group said on Monday.

According to Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the airstrikes targeted hospitals in the al-Atarib and Kafr Naya districts, which suffered severe material damages, EFE news reported.

These new bombings came as the pro-government Syrian Arab Army has intensified its operations in Aleppo's western and southwestern countryside following a surge in rebel offensives late in October.
