At Sunday night, Russian aircrafts bombed Khan Al-Sheih in the western Ghouta using the international prohibited firebombs. The bombing targeted Al Salam Hospital, which was off-duty, and that led to a fire in citizens' houses.
The few last weeks, the camp and its adjacent farms were being heavily shelled by Russian aircrafts using phosphorous, vacuum and cluster bombs. The bombardments targeted schools, mosques and Al Salam Hospital leaving victims, injuries and massive destruction in the area.
