One unconfirmed report said 12 people were killed in the attack near the town of Urum al-Kubra.A UN spokesman said at least 18 of 31 trucks had been hit but could not confirm it was by an air strike.
UN Special Envoy for Syria, Staffan de Mistura, said it was an "outrage".
"The convoy was the outcome of a long process of permission and preparations to assist isolated civilians," he said in a statement emailed to Reuters.
The Syrian Red Crescent said the convoy had been making a routine delivery from Aleppo to rural rebel-held areas. Images posted online showed lorries and trailers engulfed by flames.
Activist group the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) said 12 people - aid workers and truck drivers - had died in a strike by Syrian or Russian warplanes. The Syrian government has not commented.

This whole ceasefire is a total mess and its no wonder that it was over hours before this attack happened.
Russia and Syria are both denying that they are not behind the attack: https://twitter.com/Conflicts/status/778201141708455940 Syria, Russia refutes claims of targeting humanitarian aid convoy in Aleppo countryside – Syrian Arab News Agency
The report here states the the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said it was done by the Russians and/or Syrian planes
The Syrian Red Crescent says its too early to say who was behind the attack: https://twitter.com/BBCWorldatOne/status/778206099396780032

The title is wrong though. It needs to be changed to...


American False Flag Operation remarkable success!
 
The convoy was attacked by al Nusra Front and the Mass Media has propagandized it as an air strike by Syrian and/or Russian aircraft. If it is not authenticated by an investigative reporter, it is usually government generated misinformation/disinformation. Why is the USA attacking Syria? Demand an answer to that question.

Any evidence that this was a "American False Flag Operation"?

Just follow what makes sense. Does it make sense for Assad to want to initiate hostilities with the U.S. even if he has the backing of Russia or China? The obvious answer is a resounding "no" so when I hear reports of Assad becoming "bold" and trying to start **** with Israel or the U.S. I can't help but laugh. Assad is already dealing with ISIS in the East, and American trained and armed Islamic terrorists in the south so he's already got a two front war to deal with. Now you're implying that Assad wants Israel and the US to get directly involved. You're so used to the establishment fed to you by the U.S. propogandists that you think everyone wants to get into wars on multiple fronts but in reality it's only the U.S. Every other leader on Earth, every other nation on Earth, has a more rational foreign policy than ours.

There's a lot of possibilities that could make sense... One also being that it was a mistake.
