U.N. Investigators Say Syria Bombed Convoy and Did So Deliberately

First the Syrian air force dropped barrel bombs from helicopters on a U.N. humanitarian aid convoy, then fired rockets from jets, then strafed survivors with machine guns, U.N. investigators said Wednesday in a report that found government forces not only had committed the attack in September but had done so deliberately, a war crime.

"U.N. Investigators Say Syria Bombed Convoy and Did So Deliberately" is from the March 02, 2017 World section of The New York Times. It was written by Nick Cumming Bruce and Anne Barnard and narrated by Fleet Cooper.
