Terrorists from the group Jabhat al-Nusra (banned in the Russian Federation) shelled a convoy carrying Syrian troops in the western city of Aleppo, 360 km from Damascus, on Friday. One of the missiles hit a bus, Al-Mayadeen TV reported.


As a result, 12 soldiers and militiamen from the National Defense Forces were killed and 14 others were wounded and received medical treatment.


There is no information yet about a Syrian army retaliatory strike against the positions of the militants who broke the truce.
