Idlib massacres echo in Istanbul, activists condemn violations and inaction

 'Syrian activists on Saturday denounced the massacres and violations by the Russian and Iranian occupation forces and Assad's militias in Idlib and condemned the negative attitude of the international community towards them, during a press conference organized by the "Arab Society" and the "Syrian League" volunteers team in the Turkish state of Istanbul.

 The dissident Syrian astronaut, Mohammad Fares, called during the conference for the international community to stand by the Syrian people and their revolution, urging the UN Security Council to intervene to stop the systematic killing against the Syrians, denying the existence of terrorists among the people of the Syrian revolutionaries, stressing that terrorism was fabricated under the Assad régime in trying to suppress the voice of freedom.

 Fares added that the Syrian revolution started peacefully and that its people took up arms only after it was imposed on them so that the "free people'' would not be annihilated by Iran, the Russians and Assad's militias, while urging the Syrians and the Turks to unite to confront the attempts to attack the two brotherly peoples.



 For his part, dissident Colonel, Ahmad Hamadeh said that the attitude of the international community is negative towards the massacres have been committing against the Syrian people, as the Assad régime, Russian and Iranian militias have been using all types of weapons, including internationally prohibited and chemical weapons, pointing out that Russia used 320 types of weapons, in the bombing of northern Syria, the latest the fighter jets SU-57 and SU-35.

 He added that the bombing is the only logic understood by the Russians, Iranians and Assad's militias, stressing that they destroyed more than 80 percent of the infrastructure of the areas that revolted against the Assad régime.

Hamadeh pointed out that the Russians were the ones who failed the Sochi agreement by bombing northern Syria, stressing that the number of medical points and hospitals that were targeted in the last campaign amounted to 49 points, and the entire villages in Idlib countryside were exterminated, which forced the residents to evacuate and to move out into the open or areas.



The number of victims during the military campaign on northern Syria reached more than a thousand civilians, including hundreds of children and women, and the bombing of communities resulted in the displacement of about one million people amid difficult humanitarian conditions.'
