Amnesty International Released a Statement on Syrian Issue

International human rights organization Amnesty International expressed its concern on the condition of Aleppo population.
“Satellite images received from Aleppo and its nearby areas, shows the extent of heavy weapon use including inhabited areas. We are highly concerned about unavoidable violence in the blockaded city of Syria. Transforming the most populated city into a battle field will have devastating consequences for the citizens”, reads the statement.
The human right organization also states that there are more than 600 artillery impact craters in Anadan city near Aleppo. According to Amnesty International, this can lead to violations of human and international rights.
“Amnesty International is sending a clear message to both sides in the fighting: any attacks against civilians will be clearly documented so that those responsible can be held accountable”, reads the statement.
The organization promises to follow developments of Aleppo, as well through satellite photos, and register cases of human right violation.
