Syria foreign ministry condemns recent terror attacks on civilians in Hama, Dayr al-Zawr
Syria has strongly condemned the terrorist attacks in its central province of Hama and eastern province of Dayr al-Zawr that led to the killing of a number of people and wounding of dozens more.
On Sunday evening, terrorists launch an attack against a bus in Kabajib area in Dayr al-Zawr and another attack against fuel tankers as well as civilian vehicles in al-Salamiyah district in Hama.
The attacks, which were later claimed by the Daesh Takfiri terrorist group, killed an unspecified number of civilians and soldiers and wounded dozens of others.
“The Syrian Arab Republic condemns in the strongest terms the cowardly terrorist attacks that targeted a bus in Kabajib area on the road between Palmyra and Dayr al-Zawr, as well as fuel tankers and civilian cars on the Athria-Salamiyah road, which claimed the lives of a number of civilian and government soldiers, and wounded many others,” said a statement by the Syrian foreign ministry on Monday.
Daesh, which once controlled large parts of Syria, was finally defeated and lost all of its urban strongholds in the Arab country. However, its remnants every so often carry out sporadic attacks against both civilians and Syrian troops.
The statement, carried by Syria’s official SANA news agency, added that the “heinous attacks” coincided with the frequent Israeli attacks on the Syrian land, which confirmed once again the existence of a connection between the terrorist groups and the Tel Aviv regime.
It also stressed that a connection is also evident between the terror groups and their sponsors in the West, particularly the United States.
The ministry also blamed Turkey, which has launched cross-border invasions against the Arab country, occupied parts of northern Syria, and supports anti-Damascus militant groups.
The Syrian foreign ministry said that all these foreign-backed terror groups and their Western sponsors aim to prolong the crisis in Syria, impede the return of security and stability and increase the suffering of the Syrians through terrorism and unilateral, illegal and coercive measures.
It also praised the bravery of army troops and their allied fighters in fighting against terrorists and their supporters, stressing that the Syrian people and the army are stronger and more determined than ever to repel the war on Syria.
