'Unprecedented' regime strikes on Damascus rebel district: NGO
 

https://s1.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/t...ee9c86f958.jpgSyrian warplanes pounded the rebel Jubar district of the capital Damascus with unprecedented ferocity on Tuesday, launching 25 raids, a monitoring group said. "It's the largest number of air raids to hit Jubar since the beginning of the army offensive on the district" six days ago, said Rami Abdel Rahman, director of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. Jubar is in eastern Damascus and has been in rebel hands for a year. It is considered a strategic position because it leads onto the adjacent Abbasid Place in central Damascus and also opens onto the key rebel stronghold of Eastern Ghouta in Damascus province.
