Air strikes near Damascus kill 32

Syrian government air strikes on a rebel-held village east of Damascus have killed 32 civilians, including six children, a monitoring group says, denouncing what it called a massacre.

"The number of people killed in a massacre committed by the regime's warplanes against the village of Hammuriyeh, in the Eastern Ghouta area, has risen to 32, including six children," said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights on Friday.
