Terrorists Violate Ceasefire by Targeting Aleppo Safe Corridors in Absence of UN Staff

“The Syrian government has done its best to render medical and urgent services to the injured and patients near the safe corridors, but the terrorists did not allow anyone to leave the Eastern districts of Aleppo via these corridors,” Brigadier General Hossein Deyab said.

“The terrorist groups targeted civilians and the corridors, but none of the UN staff was present on the scene to register their violation of the humanitarian pause,” he further added.

Deyab added that militants have fired numerous missiles at Costello safe corridor, leaving several people wounded, including a journalist.

“The terrorists’ violations of the ceasefire in the hours of the humanitarian pause have been recorded by several local and foreign media, but no one from the UN staff came to the scene to register them,” he underlined.

Sources said Friday that the militant snipers in the Eastern districts of Aleppo city were targeting civilians to prevent their escape from the terrorist-held neighborhoods.

“Civilians in Bostan al-Qasr have gathered near the government-established corridor in an effort to flee the war-hit districts, but militant snipers are opening fire at them to force them to leave the area,” the sources said.
