Assad terrorists rob UN aid convoy on way to Homs’ al-‎Waer ‎

Assad terrorists robbed on Monday a UN aid convoy while ‎the UN and the Red Cross workers were returning to their ‎warehouses after ‎Assad terrorists shelled al-Waer neighbourhood in Homs ‎with mortar bombs.‎

‎“On the fifth consecutive day, the UN and the Red Cross ‎workers attempted to deliver aid to besieged civilians in Homs’ al-‎Waer. The convoy departed from their depots in the west of ‎Homs Oil Refinery for this relief mission. When they reached ‎the Assad checkpoint of al-Sheoon, Assad terrorists ‎escalated their shelling on the neighbourhood. The escalation ‎obliged the convoy to return to the depots without fulfilling ‎their mission. On their way, Assad terrorists from the Shia ‎village of al-Mazra’ stopped the convoy. They obliged 22 out ‎of the 35 trucks to head to the Shia village. After offloading ‎the aid, they released the drivers,” the owner of ‎the trucks told Orient News correspondent on ‎condition of anonymity.‎

It was not the first time the International aid convoys were ‎targeted. Assad jet fighters targeted on the 20th of September ‎in 2016 an aid convoy in Orem al-Kubra town in Aleppo ‎western countryside, killing 12 aid workers and injuring 18 ‎civilians. ‎
