At least 12 people were killed and scores wounded by a ground-to-ground missile which struck a camp for displaced people in the village of Qah on Syria-Turkey border, Baladi News correspondent reported.

The missile which was fired by the Russian-backed regime forces, was loaded with the internationally banned cluster bombs.

More than 25 people were wounded including 10 children and 10 women, some of whom are in a very critical situation, and they were transferred to Turkish hospitals, according to Baladi correspondent.

The Maternity Hospital and another medical point were rendered out of service due to the fires which erupted in the camp.

The hospital "sustained considerable material damage, causing the medical staff to evacuate patients to nearby facilities", The Syrian American Medical Society (SAMS) said in a statement. 

The attack on the Qah maternity hospital marks the 65th attack on 47 health facilities in northwest Syria since the end of April 2019.
