A man stands on a destroyed building after what activists said was an air raid by forces loyal to Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad, in Aleppo's district of Al Sukari December 24, 2013. More than 300 people have been killed in a week of air raids on the northern Syrian city of Aleppo and nearby towns by Assad's forces, a monitoring group said on Monday. Many of the casualties, who included scores of women and children, were killed by so-called barrel bombs dropped from helicopters, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
