Playboy™ Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 The UN has suspended all aid convoys in Syria after a devastating attack on its lorries near Aleppo on Monday. The strikes, which witnesses say came from the air, came hours after Syria declared a week-old US-Russia brokered cessation of hostilities at an end. Russia and Syria have both insisted that their forces were not involved.But UN chief Ban Ki-moon launched a stinging attack on the Syrian government, saying it had killed the most civilians in the civil war. Russian defence ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said that after studying video taken at the scene they "did not find any signs of munitions hitting the convoy". "Everything shown in the video is the direct result of a fire which mysteriously began at the same time as a large scale rebel attack on Aleppo," he said. The Syrian military, quoted by state media, said there was "no truth" to reports that the army had targeted the convoy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
