Two Russian officers have been injured in a militants’ attack near the west of Castello Road in Aleppo, according to the Russian Ministry of Defence, Friday.
The shelling occurred during the scheduled humanitarian pause. Vladimir Savchenko, head of the Russian Centre for Reconciliation of the warring sides in Syria, stated: “This is not the first time when the humanitarian action, announced by our country, ends like this. Four mines hit our checkpoint," adding that one more Syrian colonel was also wounded.
The Russian MOD said that the shelling was conducted with gas cylinders fired from improvised rocket launchers and mortars.
The transmission of the online monitoring from the humanitarian corridor was temporarily suspended following the attack.
The humanitarian pause was scheduled for between 07:00 GMT and 17:00 GMT on Friday and included the opening of two humanitarian corridors; one leading to the Syrian-Turkish border, and the other to the Damascus-Aleppo 'Castello' road.
