Air attacks on targets in East Ghouta

damascus - The fighting in East Ghouta continued unabated on Monday. Air strikes have been carried out on several front lines in the rebellious Syrian region east of the capital Damascus. That is what the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has announced. According to the UK-based organization, targets in Harasta, Beit Sawa and Hosh al-Ashari have been bombed and bombarded with mortar grenades.

A convoy of the United Nations was just on the way to distributing relief goods in the heavily besieged enclave, where Muslim militias try to stand up against the army of President Assad and his allies.

Earlier, the Observatory reported that Syrian troops had advanced further on Sunday night in the region, supported by fighter planes and helicopters.
