Russia condemns attacks on Syrian University of Aleppo

Russia has condemned the recent attacks on the Syrian University of Aleppo that killed 87 people, blaming the explosions on “terrorists.”

According to Press TV, the Russian Foreign Ministry on Wednesday said yesterday’s attacks in the northern city of Aleppo were carried out by the enemies of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
It added, “We condemn the latest mass killing of innocent people in Syria in the most decisive way”.
The Russian Foreign Ministry said that members of the international community have sympathized with the armed rebel groups in Syria and those countries should take “a similarly uncompromising position toward terrorism”.
Maria Zakharova, spokeswoman of the Russian Foreign Ministry, said in a statement “It is clear that this was a ruthless, bloody provocation, revenge by terrorists for significant losses they have sustained in the confrontation with government forces”.
