In Syria, warplanes bombarded the besieged rebel-held enclave of Eastern Ghouta near Damascus for the fifth straight day, as human rights groups warned the civilian death toll has topped 400 for the week—with doctors unable to tend to the wounded in bombed-out hospitals. The violence came as Russia tabled a debate at the U.N. Security Council Thursday on a measure calling for a 30-day ceasefire to allow for evacuations of the sick and wounded and for convoys of humanitarian aid to reach needy residents. Russia’s ambassador said a vote at the U.N. was likely to occur later today.
