On October 16, 2024, Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) used a rocket launcher to fire multiple rockets at al-Mahsanli village in the rural areas of Jarablos city in eastern rural Aleppo governorate. One of the rockets struck al-Mahsanli School during school hours, injuring six civilians – four students and two teachers. The school outer fence was also partially destroyed in the attack, while the school building itself was moderately damaged. The area targeted is under the control of the Syrian National Army (SNA).
The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) condemns attacks on vital facilities and civilian areas. We hold the SDF accountable for what happened, and call on the group to launch an investigation into this incident, and hold those responsible accountable.
