It's obvious this was Russia loving up some way some how. They're the only ones using white phosphorous, and as the OP said, they were the only ones above Aleppo at the time.

Except the U.S, number one consumer of oil, is increasingly using fracking, decreasing demand for imported oil significantly.
Great for the U.S. since the people it used to import its oil from are suffering recessions because of it, and said nations are our enemies. (Russia, Saudi Arabia, Iran, etc.)

morning in aleppo was met with over a dozen airstrikes, many of which are suspected to have been carried out by russian warplanes -- syrian govt, at best. many dead still lie within the streets of the nearly 40 buildings destroyed by the raid, preventing their numbers from properly being calculated. casualty reports place the civilian deaths anywhere between 14 and 70 people.

the airstrikes came right before the syrian army began an offensive to drive pro-US elements out of aleppo and retake the city for the syrian government. state media has urged civilians trapped in the city to avoid mingling with terrorists (pro-US rebels) operating in the area.
