An image of a young boy injured in an air strike in Aleppo has been circulating on social media.

Syrian opposition group, the Aleppo Media Center, released the footage in which a man is seen carrying the boy into an ambulance, where he sits looking dazed and bloodied.

Former Labour MP David Miliband, now president & CEO of the International Rescue Committee, was one of those to retweet the image.

The child is believed to be recovering with his family.
