Syrian government forces and Russian aircraft blanketed parts of the besieged, rebel-held enclave of eastern Ghouta with airstrikes and rocket fire on March 15, activists said, as Syrians marked seven years since the popular uprising that sparked their country’s vicious civil war.
Meanwhile, the International Committee of the Red Cross managed to send a joint relief agencies convoy with aid for thousands of displaced into another part of eastern Ghouta, the town of Douma, the ICRC said.
