Rebels commit horrific crimes: Syria
Font Size
The Syrian government says the rebel armed groups backed and funded by
Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey are committing “horrific crimes” against
civilians in the capital, Damascus, and the city of Aleppo.
In two letters addressed to the head of the UN Security Council and the
UN secretary general, the Syrian Foreign Ministry said that the rebels backed
by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey are using civilians in Aleppo as human
shields, and killing anyone who does not support their crimes.
A large number of mercenaries are gathered in Aleppo, whose entry to the
city has been facilitated by Turkey, the letters pointed out.
The Syrian Foreign Ministry further denounced the Western states’
reluctance to urge armed opposition groups to end their attacks in the country.
The Syrian government has regained control over all parts of the capital,
and is now trying to clear the country's largest city, Aleppo, of the rebels.
The syrian military forces have cleared more areas in the city of Aleppo
with reports of renewed heavy fighting between Syrian security forces and the
armed rebel groups in the city.
According to an editorial in the pan-Arab newspaper, al-Quds al-Arab,
Riyadh has been exerting pressure on Amman to join the anti-Syria war by
cutting off its financial aid to the country since March last year. The
pressure came after Jordan’s refusal to support the armed opposition groups
fighting against the government of President Bashar al-Assad.
Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011. Damascus says
‘outlaws, saboteurs, and armed terrorists’ are behind the unrest while the
opposition accuses the security forces of killing the protesters.
The Syrian government says that the chaos is being orchestrated from
outside the country.
