New York-Sana

The United Nations held the US occupation forces responsible for the killing of dozens of civilians in Deir ez-Zor near the village of al-Baghuz in Deir ez-Zor countryside in 2019.

In response to what was published by the New York Times about the US air strikes in Syria killing dozens of civilians, the Deputy Spokesman for the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Farhan Haq, stressed to RIA Novosti news agency that “the United States should bear responsibility for actions that lead to the deaths of civilians.”

And the New York Times revealed in a report yesterday that the US occupation army deliberately concealed a crime it committed against civilians in Syria in 2019, which caused 64 victims of women and children, explaining that two successive air strikes were carried out by the US Air Force near the village of Al-Baghouz in the Deir Ezzor countryside by order of an American special operations unit Secret Service, noting that it was a “possible war crime.”

Since its formation from outside the Security Council in August 2014, the so-called “international coalition” led by the United States has committed dozens of massacres against Syrians by bombing residential areas in the countryside of Aleppo, Deir ez-Zor, Raqqa and Hasaka, in addition to destroying infrastructure under the pretext of fighting the terrorist organization “ISIS” at the same time. In which the data and facts confirm the close connection between the coalition and the organization to target the Syrian Arab Army and residential communities in the eastern region.
