Palestinian refugee Mohamed Ali Fares and his relative Rasha Nabil AlDhawahra died in an air strike launched by the Syrian government forces on Jilin town, south of Syria, sometime earlier.

The children’s family said that both died as a result of an attack recently carried out by Syria’s pro-government battalions on Jilin.

On March 19, a number of civilians, including Palestinian refugee Ali Husain Mohamed, were pronounced dead after a mortar shell was unleashed by the Syrian government forces.

Human rights sources have documented the death of 400 Palestinian residents of Daraa city, south of Syria, due to war-related incidents.
