Israel Bombs Aleppo Airport Stopping Aid from Flowing In

79 aid planes had landed in Aleppo airport from February 6th until Israel hit it on the seventh of March   shutting it down!!Aleppo was badly hit by the earthquake that struck both Syria and Turkey on February the sixth. Much needed help started to pour in from many Arab and friendly countries directly into Aleppo via its airport. The situation was dire made more so by the coercive sanctions imposed upon Syria.

Israel then decided to add to the already terrible situation by bombing Aleppo airport rendering it unfit for service.

The Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates   slammed the Israeli attack as a double crime since it targeted a civil airport and one of the main channels for delivering aid to the quake victims, calling on the international community to put an end to such attacks.

“This aggression once again reflects the worst forms of barbarism and inhumanity of the Israeli entity and its practice of the most severe violations of international law, including international humanitarian law,” the ministry said.
It is worth asking how Israel can pose as a humanitarian peace loving country when it is ready to bomb and kill the already almost dead.
