Aleppo

With all of that in mind, nothing could really prepare you for the sheer scale of the devastation visible throughout Syria’s second largest city.

ALEPPO – For the last five years, everyone has been talking about Aleppo. I can’t even count how many interviews we’ve conducted, or how many TV news segments I’ve watched and articles read – about the battles and sieges in this crucial theatre which has come to symbolise the long war on Syria.

The post Western Backed Terrorists’ Attempts to Destroy Syria appeared first on BSNEWS.

DAMASCUS – On March 16, U.S. military aircraft bombed a location southwest of al-Jinah, a small village in Syria’s city of Aleppo. The U.S. military has maintained that it was targeting a meeting of al-Qaeda members in a partially-built community hall.

We join Tom Duggan and Hanin Elias who are both on the ground in Syria in an exclusive interview where they help us breakdown the mainstream media lies surrounding the recent chemical attack at Khan Sheikoun.

Lets be clear, this isn’t an attack on the tragic death of young Alan Kurdi or 80 year old Vanessa Redgrave, member of the Redgrave acting dynasty and British acting aristocracy; this is another reminder of the ‘selective moral outrage’ we see time and time again surrounding the refugee crisis influx into Europe and above all, the war on Syria.
