Over 100 Children Among 338 Killed in Aleppo Attacks This Week, W.H.O. Says



WHO said heavy bombardment of the area by Russia and Syria had killed 338 people in the last week, including more than 100 children. The government saying its fighters had captured more territory in northern parts of the city and penetrated the center of Aleppo. They were clashing with the rebels. Rebel commanders denied and said that government forces had not made any progress since capturing the Handarat refugee camp north of the city.


          Dr. Brennan from W.H.O said that eastern Aleppo had eight working hospitals, but its two biggest medical centers came under attack and no longer functioning. The United Nations planed for evacuations and identified hospitals in northern Syria that could receive the wounded. But those plans have been held in abeyance because of the intense fighting, the absence of assurances of safe passage and the lack of a green light from the government.

          Children always become victims when there is a conflict between government and rebels. Children are not safe anymore. They often misused for country problems. I think all the institution should care with children safety, because they are our generation.
