The Coalition: Russia is marketing its weapons by targeting hospitals and schools in Syria

The National Coalition said that the Russian president’s recent statements about the Russian occupation army testing new weapons in Syria, came to reveal one of the faces of the criminality represented by the Russian aggression in Syria.

The coalition pointed out that in 2019, in one of the rounds in which Putin spoke of “experimenting” and using the means of killing, the Russian occupation aircraft bombed four hospitals in Syria within 12 hours.

The coalition pointed out in a press statement that, starting from the end of September 2015, Russia had committed at least 350 massacres, targeting more than 220 schools, 210 hospitals, medical centers and clinics.

The coalition stressed that the Kremlin’s bragging and its attempt to market killing tools at the expense of the blood of innocents whose country has been turned into a testing ground;
It is condemned and unacceptable.

The coalition noted that Russia’s regional and international role has been limited for years to spreading chaos, adding that the Kremlin has not been able, since 1990, to present any model of rational or just governance.

And he added: Russia is still subject to individual rule in an authoritarian intelligence regime that pursues opponents and assassinates them with poison or hides them in prisons.

The coalition added: There is nothing unique or special about the means of killing and destruction that Russia boasts about. The facts on the ground confirm that it was nothing but a means of mass killing civilians and committing war crimes, and that it did not engage in any confrontation against military forces that possess any kind of defenses or air forces.
It was unable, however, to impose acquiescence on the Syrian people through military repression or to achieve any decisive or strategic victory.

The coalition made it clear that the path of accountability and the prosecution of war criminals will not be far away, and that justice will reach all those who committed crimes against the Syrian people, and that Syrians, activists and human rights defenders around the world will continue to pursue those responsible for crimes everywhere until they receive their just punishment.

The coalition concluded by emphasizing the responsibility of the international community towards Russia’s crimes, and demanded the imposition of appropriate mechanisms to stop its disruptive and criminal role, stressing the need to work for a more effective move to pressure and impose a political transition in the country.
