ALEPPO, Syria — Syrian regime fighter jets stepped up their attacks on residential neighborhoods in Aleppo over the weekend, killing 42 people, including women and children, and wounding scores of other civilians.
The warplanes targeted buildings in numerous opposition-controlled neighborhoods, including a market in Sakhur. The regime, which had resumed shelling April 11, has intensified its efforts since then. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has documented the air force's shelling of numerous neighborhoods in the city.
