غارات جوية على مناطق "الهجوم الكيميائي" في ريف دمشق

Read this story in English W460

نفذت قوات النظام السوري غارات جوية على مناطق عدة في دمشق وريفها، بحسب المرصد السوري لحقوق الانسان، بينها قرى ومدن قالت المعارضة انها شهدت امس الاربعاء هجوما كيميائيا ذهب ضحيته مئات الاشخاص.

وتأتي هذه الغارات في اطار عملية عسكرية واسعة تقوم بها قوات النظام منذ يوم امس في المنطقة.

وقال المرصد في بريد الكتروني "جدد الطيران الحربي قصفه على مناطق في مدينة زملكا والغوطة الشرقية وعربين (شرق العاصمة) مع استمرار القصف من القوات النظامية على المنطقة".

واشار في رسالة لاحقة الى ان "الطيران الحربي نفذ ايضا ثلاث غارات خلال خمس دقائق على مناطق في مدينة معضمية الشام" وغارات اخرى على داريا وخان الشيخ الى جنوب غرب العاصمة.

وترافقت الغارات مع قصف على هذه المناطق التي عاشت امس حالة من الهلع نتيجة "الهجوم الكيميائي" وتعرضت لحملة قصف "لا سابق لها" بحسب المرصد.

واشار المرصد الى اشتباكات بين القوات النظامية ومقاتلي المعارضة في محيط زملكا.

كما نفذ الطيران السوري غارة اليوم على حي القابون في شمال شرق دمشق.

وقال ناشط يقدم نفسه باسم ابو جهاد من شرق العاصمة في اتصال مع وكالة فرانس برس عبر سكايب ان التصعيد الذي حصل خلال الساعات الماضية مرتبط بمحاولة لقوات النظام لاستعادة السيطرة على معاقل للمعارضة المسلحة قريبة من دمشق.

واشار الى ان الجيش نفذ هجمات عدة في منطقة الغوطة امس، مضيفا انه تمكن من دخول عربين وحرستا وجوبر وزملكا وعين ترما شرق العاصمة.

واوضح ان قوات النظام "لم تستعد السيطرة على هذه المناطق، الا انها استعادت بعض النقاط الاستراتيجية"، مشيرا الى ان "الثوار بدأوا هجوما مضادا".

ويسيطر مقاتلو المعارضة على مدن عدة وقرى في منطقة الغوطة الشرقية وعلى شريط جنوب غرب دمشق منذ اكثر من عام.

وذكرت المعارضة السورية ان 1300 شخص قتلوا في "الهجوم الكيميائي" الذي نفذته قوات النظام امس، فيما نفت دمشق بقوة حصوله.

في المقابل، اعلن المرصد السوري لحقوق الانسان ان عدد القتلى الذين تمكن من توثيقهم الاربعاء في ريف دمشق يصل الى 170، وهم 109 بينهم ثلاثون امرأة و14 طفلا شرق دمشق، و61 في معضمية الشام بينهم احد عشر طفلا واربع نساء.

how convenient. covering something?

the combat hadent stopped there in weeks before the chemicals were used, it didnt stop yesterday neither did it stop today. no amount of combat can make the traces of such a massive chemical attack disappear, the soil must be drenched with it, the walls of the buildings, the blood of the victims, the bodies... traces will no go because a few shells fell here and there.

Thumb _mowaten_ 18:44 ,2013 آب 22

the most basic logic would indicate that it was done by one of qaeda's group in syria.
first we all know they never gave a damn about innocent lives as shown in their terrorist attacks where they'd deliberately blow up scores of civilians without hesitation
and second the syrian army had neither the need for, nor any interest in such an attack. the only outcome of this massacre is to try to incriminate the regular troops.
little reminder, the britam email leak:

Phil

We’ve got a new offer. It’s about Syria again. Qataris propose an attractive deal and swear that the idea is approved by Washington.
We’ll have to deliver a CW to Homs, a Soviet origin g-shell from Libya similar to those that Assad should have.
They want us to deploy our Ukrainian personnel that should speak Russian and make a video record.
Frankly, I don’t think it’s a good idea but the sums proposed are enormous. Your opinion?

Kind regards

i cannot always explain everything anonyme, as i told you yesterday i see facts and try to analyze from there and make my opinion.

here i'm sorry to say it, but there are no facts. did the UN team ask to go there or are you assuming they did? did the regime deny or delay or are you assuming they did?
maybe the inspectors themselves are still assessing whether or not it is possible/safe to go on-site, maybe the council needs to issue some sort of order (i doubt they can just go around and wander)...

and about sending rescue teams are you serious? the nusra boys have been slaughtering all government employees and sniping them where they can, just a couple of days ago i saw that: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=0d9_1377040297
those were probably workers trying to restore electricity to a neighborhood, but it makes no difference to these animals, they just shoot

@Rudy: definitely.
@anonymetexasusa: bravo. Exactly what happened in Houla 24 hours after the arrival of the "Observers" mission in 2012...
Syrian Regime is the champion of cover up. Remember how fast they cleaned the area when they killed Mughniyeh...

Hmmm Your Wishful thinking: "Living to see the end of bashar..." The thing Bashar will live throughout millions of Syrian who managed for the last 50 years to bring Syria out of Back-warded Gulf-Style cannibal-Eating culture. Bashar might die, you might die but Baath never dies. Peace!

anonyme: a handful? they are tens of thousands, they already took over the FSA and are most likely behind this attack. they have the most extreme sort of views and literally terrorize the population under pretext of coming to save them from dictatorship. of course they are more dangerous

Thumb _mowaten_ 18:46 ,2013 آب 22

yes, so those who support the rebels are responsible for terrorism, executions and mass murder

Thumb Maxx 21:36 ,2013 آب 22

...And those who support the Iranian Occupation Forces and Baschar's barkers support mass-murder, plural executions, collective terrorism, child-sniping, and the butchering of grannies and infants with machetes (a là Qusayr). You've got the wrong flag for your avatar ya "mowaten".

There are your "Takfiri terrorists" right there in that photo ya Hasan. What a brave man you must be to be so "terrorized" of them. Who needs Qana when you have Ghouta?

Thumb jabal10452 10:27 ,2013 آب 23

Qana was thoroughly investigated by the UN, Human Right Watch and Amnesty International . The reports squarely placed the responsibility on the Israel, as well as acknowledging that HA had a mortar position within the 200 m perimeter of the Fijian UN base where civilians were sheltering. Here's what the UN report said:
(f) Contrary to repeated denials, two Israeli helicopters and a remotely piloted vehicle were present in the Qana area at the time of the shelling. While the possibility cannot be ruled out completely, it is unlikely that the shelling of the United Nations compound was the result of gross technical and/or procedural errors.

Thumb Maxx 21:07 ,2013 آب 22

I'm with Tex on this. Give the area two, three days - maximum a week - of ventilation, and those molecules would have become so dispersed that the evidence would not stand in a court of law. By keeping up the bombardment on the area he (Baschar) can keep up the pretence that he is denying UN inspectors access to the area because "it is unsafe" (because surely Baschar cares a lot). If the government did launch that CW attack, it would be in the rebels' interest that the fighting lulls and the inspectors come over and do their job: inspect. But who is keeping up the bombardment? That's right.

Now convenient that the regime started bombing the place just as UN inspectors wanted to get in and inspect. The Regime is playing the international community as fools and the international community is complicit in being fools. The complicity is to the point now of enabling atrocities to be committed against the Syrian people with complete international impunity. Shame on the so called "world leaders". This is not leadership, it's lawyership. There is a difference.

Thumb beiruti 04:54 ,2013 آب 23

Anonymetexas, the Arab League countries will not stage an intervention so as not to seta precedent. The various kings and autocrats of the region wish to reserve their right to commit genocide against their own people too, if necessary for their regimes's survival.

Really, we are going to wait for this bunch to act, or justify our forbearance on this??? Since when has the member states of the Arab League set the international standard for detecting and preventing crimes against humanity??? They are the ones who commit crimes against humanity. Their inaction can provide the West no credible cover for Western inaction. It was the US that set the international standards for human rights. Our abdication during these atrocities leaves no one to hold the standard for those who fall victim to the likes of Middle Eastern regimes.
