Médecins Sans Frontières hospitals in Syria targeted by Russians
2016-02-15
[Guardian] Airstrikes have hit hospitals in two locations in northern Syria -- marking the latest in a series of attacks on medical facilities and workers in the five-year civil war.

Médecins Sans Frontières said eight staff members were missing after a facility it supports in Maaret al-Numan, Idlib province, was hit four times in two separate raids. MSF did not blame any side for the bombing, but there has been an unrelenting aerial bombardment by Russian warplanes and Bashar al-Assad's regime in Idlib.

"This appears to be a deliberate attack on a health structure, and we condemn this attack in the strongest possible terms," said Massimiliano Rebaudengo, MSF's head of mission in Syria. "The destruction of the hospital leaves the local population of about 40,000 people without access to medical services in an active zone of conflict."

"No enemies to the Left" indeed.

#1  ...Where's the demand for war crimes investigations? Little bit different when you get hit by people who are willing to hit you back, isn't it?
