At least 20 people, including children, were killed on Wednesday (August 15th) in an airstrike on the town of Aazaz near Syria's northern city of Aleppo, AFP reported.

The attack came amid heavy shelling of several districts of Aleppo.

The Observatory said the strike was by a MiG fighter jet and targeted a former Baath Party headquarters which had been taken over by rebel groups.

"The whole of the area was flattened," Abdel Rahman said. "Those killed included civilians and fighters, but what is clear is that there was a Free Syrian Army base there."

    All Arabs must help one another. If ever a country faces a problem, we find all Arabs joined to find the suitable solution in order to save that country and protect it from danger. For instance, all Arab countries should now open their doors to Syrian citizens. The latter are fleeing from the shells and bullets fired by the Syrian regime against innocent civilians. Arab States should provide appropriate places to accommodate all the Syrian refugees and provide them with security and the appropriate medical care that they need. In fact, Arab States must provide a lot of services for the refugees. They must provide appropriate food and field hospitals to treat the injuries suffered by those who have escaped. They must send serious cases to the major hospitals and treat the Syrians in the best hospitals at the expense of the State. This is a simple thing compared to what our brothers in Syria are suffering. Arab States must establish programs to rehabilitate the Syrians at the psychological level. They must prepare them to get back home safe and not to suffer from any problem or psychological complexes that may affect them in the future. I hope to see the Syrians in the best conditions and that they get rid of the Syrian regime and its crimes.
