A still from footage shown on Syrian opposition networks of a young Syrian girl calling for her father after an air strike in Talbiseh, nears Homs, northern Syria.

Disturbing footage has emerged on social media of a young, injured Syrian girl crying out for her dad following a government air strike on her home in Homs, Syria. 

Activists say that she was later reunited with her father, although air strikes on Tuesday by Russia on Aleppo killed at least 10 civilians, including two toddlers, according to observers and activists.
