Armed Groups’ Horrible Massacre in Adra Condemned

DAMASCUS, (ST) – The horrible massacre committed by the armed terrorist groups against civilians in the city of Adra in Damascus countryside has been a source of condemnation by Moslem scholars and representative of political parties and labor institutions and trade unions.

Dr. Mohammad Tawfik al-Bouti, Head of the Levant Scholars Union, has urged the world and Moslems to adopt a decisive stance on the horrible crime committed in Adra against residents of workers buildings.

In a statement on Sunday, al-Bouti said that “this unprecedented crime will be written down in the black pages of history, because it was committed in the name of Islam aiming to distort its sublime meanings, values and instructions.”

“How killers claim that they are Moslems, yet they do what beasts don’t do,” said scholar al-Bouti, stressing that those criminals are implementing enemies’ schemes in destroying Syria.

For its part, the Ministry of Labor urged, in a message of protest, the International Labor Organization to condemn the terrorist acts committed by the armed takfiri groups against civilians in Adra and to pressure the governments and bodies which provide arms and financial support to these groups.

Barbaric Act

The Kurdish National Movement for Peaceful Change described the crime as a barbaric act which comes within the framework of the massacres which have being committed against the Syrian people over the past three years at Saudi and Turkish orders in implementation of a Zio-American agenda.

The International Federation of Arab Trade Unions stressed that Adra massacre is a completely condemned act banned by all religions and conventions and which is inconsistent with human nature and morals.

“This coward criminal act reflects how much hatred perpetrators have in their hearts and minds, the Federation’s statement said, calling for pursuing the murderers and putting them on trial.

Iraq’s Workers Union condemned the Crime committed in Adra by enemies of live and humanity. It stressed that the crime continues the coward terrorist acts being committed in Syria and Iraq.

Arabs’ Socialists Movement held the countries, which provide terrorists in Syria with arms and money, responsible for the savage crime in Adra, stressing that such criminal acts serve only Imperialism and Zionism.
