Syrian regime routinely bombs civilians in Eastern Ghouta

The BBC has obtained shocking footage from the besieged area of Eastern Ghouta in Syria where 200 people have been killed in the last two weeks, including 50 children.

Since mid-November 2017, the estimated 393,000 people trapped there have been subjected to airstrikes, shelling and bombardment on an almost daily basis by government forces and their allies.
