Officials initially reported eight civilian deaths, but later put the toll at seven, including three children, a woman and three men. Several other people were reportedly injured. Five members of one family were said to have died after a strike hit an area in Al-Tuff, in northeastern Daraa, where they had sought shelter. Emergency teams responded to the affected communities and assisted survivors.
