It was not immediately clear who was behind the bombing.
A Syrian military source told Reuters that government warplanes had not been used in areas where airstrikes were reported. The defense ministry of Russia, which is conducting airstrikes in Syria to support President Bashar Assad, did not return NBC News’ request for comment. A U.S.-led coalition is also carrying out airstrikes in the country.
Doctors Without Borders, which is also known as Médecins Sans Frontières, said it was “outraged” by the incident.
“This devastating attack has destroyed a vital hospital in Aleppo,” Muskilda Zancada, MSF head of mission for Syria, said in a statement. “Where is the outrage among those with the power and obligation to stop this carnage?”
The hospital featured an eight-bed paediatrics unit and was “the main referral center” for ailing children, the charity said. The facility employed eight doctors and 28 nurses. Following the airstrike there was little left of the emergency room, intensive care unit, and operating room, according to the organization. MSF initially said three of the doctors had been killed but later revised that figure to two.
