Shelling kills 6 schoolchildren in besieged Syria rebel enclave

(AFP) – At least six schoolchildren were among 11 people killed in Syrian regime shelling Tuesday in Eastern Ghouta, a war monitor said, despite a ceasefire in the hunger-hit rebel enclave. The bombardment of the rebel-held pocket outside Damascus came as a new round of peace talks to end Syria’s six-year war entered a second day in the Kazakh capital Astana.
