Syria: Dozens of evacuees killed in bus convoy blast

Now I have only one fear that there will be a retaliation for this attack and Syrian army will attack the Rebel with Air strike and civilians will die in that.

How else can Syria react without friendly killing?

The Rebels did it! No Assad did it! Two weeks earlier for some of you it was Assad who ordered the chemical attack. Then his supporters told it was a false flag by the Rebels. And things can go on and on and on but what's the point...

So who is right and who is wrong in this conflict? It's always you who is right and always others who are wrong, right? At the end it's only the innocent people who are suffering but who cares. :coffee:

Rest In Peace. Inshallah God take them to heavens...


If Yankees, zionists, Turks, Qataris and Suads haven't supported these lowlife terrorists in Syria such incidents would never happen in any Middle Eastern or even Islamic country.

May God burn heads of US, Turks, Qataris and Najdi Suads in hell in the worst way of possible because of their crimes against humanity.

Call it moderate rebel/ISIS/JN or what the f*** ever. This is just another horrific crime committed by devotees of the Salafist/Wahabist death cult.

Death toll from Aleppo bus convoy bomb attack at least 126: Observatory



By John Davison | BEIRUT

The death toll from a bomb attack on a crowded bus convoy outside Aleppo has reached at least 126 in the deadliest such incident in Syria in almost a year, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group said on Sunday.

The Observatory and the United Nations cited reports that more than 60 children were among the dead.

Syrian rescue workers of the Civil Defence said that they had taken away at least 100 bodies from the site of Saturday's blast, which hit buses carrying Shi'ite residents as they waited to cross from rebel into government territory in an evacuation deal between the warring sides.

The British-based Observatory said the number was expected to rise.

Those killed were mostly residents of the villages of al-Foua and Kefraya in Idlib province, but included rebel fighters guarding the convoy, the Observatory said.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, which pro-Damascus media said was carried out by a suicide car bomber.

Syria's main armed opposition condemned the bombing, with groups fighting under the banner of the Free Syrian Army describing it as a "treacherous terrorist attack".

Pope Francis, in an Easter message, also condemned the attack, describing it as "ignoble", and asking God to bring healing and comfort to what he called the "beloved and martyred Syria".

The convoy was carrying at least 5,000 people including civilians and several hundred pro-government fighters, who were granted safe passage out of the two Shi'ite villages which are besieged by rebels.

Under the evacuation deal, more than 2,000 people, including rebel fighters, were granted safe passage out of Madaya, a town near Damascus besieged by government forces and their allies.

That convoy was waiting at a bus garage in a government-held area on Aleppo's outskirts, a few miles from where the attack took place. Madaya evacuees said they heard the blast.

The Syrian Quagmire – Pakistan’s Perspective
a-syrian-rebel-surveys-the-surrounding-area-jpg.391470

The Syrian quagmire is one of the most baffling war in the history of mankind. As Syria war continues and as Pakistan’s ex-Army Chief General Raheel Sharif is nominated the chief of Islamic Military Alliance to Fight Terrorism (IMAFT), it may be time for Pakistanis to revisit the Syrian conflict for a better understanding to reach consensus on what should be Pakistan’s Syria policy, especially after the election of Donald Trump, whose Syria strategy is still unclear even after a clear shift in policy after recent strikes on Syrian Army airbase, which were in response to a chemical attack allegedly by Assad according to U.S. and its allies but disputed by Syrian regime and its allies Russia and Iran. Pakistan, who itself is a member of the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC), condemned the chemical attack and called on all parties to find a peaceful resolution to the Syrian conflict. What initially started as a civil war has become such a nonsensical quagmire that even the parties involved have little idea where to go from here.
