UN slams airstrike on water plant in Syria’s Aleppo

Press TV – December 1, 2015

The United Nations has censured the bombardment of a water treatment plant in northwestern Syria.

The Syrian state news agency SANA reported that the US-led coalition conducting airstrikes against purported positions of the Daesh Takfiri terrorists in Syria had bombed the water plant.

“In Syria, the rules of war, including those meant to protect vital civilian infrastructure, continue to be broken on a daily basis,” said Hanaa Singer, the UNICEF representative in Syria, in a statement on Tuesday.

“The airstrike which reportedly hit al-Khafseh water treatment plant in the northern city of Aleppo last Thursday (November 26) is a particularly alarming example.”

The US-led coalition airstrikes have been widely criticized as ineffective with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad saying terrorists in Syria have grown in power since the military campaign was launched in September 2014. Reports also show that the air strikes have repeatedly hit Syrian infrastructure.

The coalition has been bombing the purported Daesh positions without any authorization from the government in Damascus or a United Nations mandate.

As a result of the West’s warped policy on Syria, the coalition has not only failed in its mission to dislodge the Daesh terrorists, but also, according to President Assad, the West has provided assistance to the Takfiri terrorists.

“Logistically, all kinds of supports to ISIS (Daesh), whether it’s human resources, money, and selling their oil, and so on, passes through Turkey, in cooperation with the Saudis and Qataris, and of course with American and Western overlooking of what’s going on,” Assad stated on November 22.

  1. It seems the Americans have no problem with air strikes on Hospitals(Afghanistan), Water Treatment plants, Wedding parties etc, which are all aimed at civilian targets, and they have the utter gall to go on all the time about “Terrorists”. When will the American hypocrisy end?
    The USA are the World’s worst terrorists, by far.

    • I hasten to add, it is not the American people who are terrorists…………It’s the Military Industrial Complex, and America’s ruling elite who are guilty. It’s all being done in America’s name.
