US and its allies seek to provide political cover to terrorist groups in Syria

images (61)An official source at the Foreign and Expatriates Ministry said that ”the US and its allies complicit in conspiring against Syria and shedding the Syrians’ blood have been spelling out stances and making statements that aim to provide a political cover to the armed terrorist groups in Syria every time the Syrian armed forces have been doing their duty in protecting the Syrian citizens and restoring security and stability all over Syria.”

In a statement to SANA on Thursday, the source added that ”these countries have launched disinformation and slander campaigns by making statements that aim to incite against the Syrian government against the backdrop of ongoing military operations to restore security and stability to Homs city and combat the terrorism of the armed groups.”

The source added that these countries have remained silent over the crimes of the terrorist groups who terrorized civilians in Homs city, drove them out of their homes and used some as human shields under the watching eye of the world, including the hypocrite states that feign care for the lives of Syrian civilians as they offer military and logistic support to the armed groups to prolong violence and terrorism.

The source added that ”the Syrian government, which is upholding its constitutional duties to protect the safety of its citizens and provide security and stability for them and combat the terrorism targeting them, is doing everything in its power to ensure the safety of civilians and meet their needs all over Syria.”

The source indicated that the Syrian government officially requested on Thursday the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) to send a humanitarian aid convoy, in cooperation with the Syrian Arab Red Crescent, to the besieged civilians in Homs old city whom the armed terrorist groups are using as human shields, and demanded that it works to evacuate them through safe corridors designed for this goal.

”Syria stresses that the efforts of the armed forces for restoring security and stability to the homeland and enabling citizens to return to their homes are completely consistent with their national responsibilities and are part of the Syrian government’s commitment to combat terrorism in all its forms,” the source concluded.
