The terribly devastated image of a five-year boy Omran Daqneesh who was pulled out with brushes of injuries in body and blood in the forehead from the ravage of a building destroyed in Russian air strike in Aleppo city went viral to global community on Tuesday immediately he was recovered by a rescue team.
It raised outcry once again from all over as the terrible death of Aylan Kurd in the Turkish coast had touched the international community in September last year to demand immediate stop of the bloody Syrian war. It entered the 5th year now to be longer than the Second World War when Syrian government forces are now laying siege on Aleppo city forcing several hundred thousands people to die from starvation.
The UN Security Council (SC) is trying to break a passage to reach food to the beleaguered rebel held eastern part of the city. SC members spent time in hectic lobbying over the past few days but Russian reservations is so high protecting Bashar al-Assad regime that every effort by US and other countries is failing to create a supply line.
Killing of civilians in the besieged Aleppo city by forces of President Bashar al-Assad and aided by Russian airpower and Iranian ground force has meanwhile intensified as they are trying to establish control over the entire city which was under rebel control over the past three years mainly made of hard line al-Nusrah group and US backed Free Syrian Army.
The ceasefire; which was agreed in last February was breaking time and again as the Syrian government forces were desperately attempting to retake the city which is the second largest city and its commercial hub. In July, they managed to severe the last rebel supply line coming from Turkey in the north and surrounded Aleppo.
However, rebels large-scale counter-attack also made gains as they are holding the east and trying to open a new supply line. Meanwhile the battle for Aleppo continues with the regime forces offensive and rebels’ counter-offensive turning the fight as symbolic to be deciding the fate of the entire war
As it appears the rebel held eastern zone is facing the worst humanitarian crisis. UN envoy for Syria Stefan de Mistura has made the last minute call yesterday to agree to a 48-hour ceasefire when supply can be reached to the rebel held eastern part. Nobody is sure whether it will work in the prevailing situation, although we hope that it must work.
Meanwhile aerial bombardments destroyed the entire city including hospitals killing patients and doctors. It did not even exclude maternity hospitals in the beleaguered city. But Russia seems to be desperate to win victory for Bashar al-Assad who is a Hitler like killer and yet the Russians are collaborating with such enemy of humanity. The siege of Aleppo is no different from the siege of Stalingrad by Hitler’s army; which wanted to capture southern part of the then Soviet Union to move to the north.
It appears that Russia is now serious to make its dominant presence in the Middle East and trying to use Syria as a springboard to weaken Western presence and especially the domination of the USA in the region. We must say, the US government is no less responsible for the debacle of its Syria policy. The US and other countries seem careless about the brutalities taking place in Syria. The country has been and its people are being humiliated as refugees.
Russia has been actively supporting Assad and even using its own fighters to bomb the rebel held areas. The question is if Russia can boldly try to save Assad then why the West cannot fight to end Assad for the cause of humanity and worst violation of human rights.
Not only us even some American eminent persons believe that President Obama failed to take action against Assad. We are not sure if it suits Western strategy to make ISIS powerful as terrorists for condemning the Muslims. ISIS people are the worst examples as Muslims. If the West is serious about ending ISIS then they have to fight Assad to finish him. If the West is not ready to fight Assad to end Assad then it is hypocritical to talk of fighting ISIS.
