‘Why do they bomb us?’ 13yo Aleppo girl, brother killed in latest rebel shelling
A series of deadly mortar attacks rocked the government-controlled areas of Aleppo on Sunday, killing at least three people and injuring 23 others. RT spoke with survivors as rescuers dug through rubble to recover the body of a 13-year-old girl.
It took a total of six hours to recover the body of the young girl, named Sarah, who died inside her apartment – despite staying home from school in an effort to remain safe.
Her father told her and her brother not to go to school because there was heavy shelling going on. So they stayed home, and then the rocket hit [the apartment],” Sarah’s neighbor and friend, Ahmad, told RT’s Murad Gazdiev.
Sarah’s 20-year-old brother died in the same room.
Overcome with grief, Sarah’s father had to be restrained following the realization that both his children had been killed.
