Syrian fighters from a rebel group considered ‘moderate’ by Washington are responsible for using toxic gas shells that killed seven and injured 23 in Aleppo on Tuesday, according to a statement from the Russian Ministry of Defense. “On August 2, 2016 at 19 hours 05 minutes militants from the Harakat Nour al-Din al-Zenki group, considered by Washington as ‘moderate opposition’, launched poisonous materials from the Sukkari district towards the eastern part of Aleppo,” the ministry said.
It added that the territory is under rebel control and that shells were fired towards “the residential area” of the Salah-Eddin district. Moscow informed Washington of the use of toxic shells on Monday, Lieutenant-General Sergey Chvarkov, head of the Russian Reconciliation Center in Syria, said. On Tuesday evening, Syria’s state-run SANA news agency reported that Syrian officials said an attack using poisonous gas had occurred in Aleppo. A “terrorist attack” on the Old City of Aleppo with “shells containing toxic gas” led to the deaths of five and suffocation of eight more civilians, the outlet quoted the city’s health director, Mohamad Hazouri, as saying. A local police source told SANA that terrorist groups fired rocket shells at the al-Hamadaniyeh neighborhood, injuring six. They also targeted the Salah-Eddin neighborhood, killing two and injuring 11 more. Meanwhile a chilling video purporting to show the aftermath of the deadly toxic shelling in Aleppo emerged online on Wednesday. See America those aren't rebels were supporting with our tax dollars, those rebels that Washington thinks we support are actually ISIS fighters being trained by our military. Once again it shows you that supporting any foreign military group just proves that we once again don't learn from our mistakes in war. The only people we should support with military aid from US tax dollars is our own military, because every time we have support foreign fighters in the past like today it alone proves they always turn out being the bad guys who we're supporting in a foreign battlefield. This would be now about two or three times now where groups we support with military funding have now committed a war crime in Americas name by using chemical weapons, that they were likely funded with by the Obama administration through the CIA and Pentagon.
