'The US and European countries have done nothing to stop the ongoing crimes against us,' - Syrians vent anger amid regime assault on Idlib and surrounding areas
Syrians fleeing regime attacks in the rebel-held territory of Idlib have voiced anger at the international community’s seeming inaction to stop the Assad offensive.
“The US and European countries have done nothing to stop the ongoing crimes against us,” said Bassel Alawne, a father of five from Maraat al Nouman in Idlib province. In the past week, several reports have emerged of chlorine gas use by Assad forces and the US has warned the regime of retaliationFor Alawne, who fled the Damascus suburb of Ghouta, which was also targeted with chemical weapons, those retaliatory strikes were nowhere near enough to prevent similar attacks.
Karam Mslate echoed that opinion. The 29-year-old history teacher from Jisr al Shogour said Western states had shown an “irresponsibility” towards the Syrian people.
