(Censored) Security Camera Films School Children Being Murdered by Assad Regime
Published 3 years ago
Absolutely horrendous CCTV security camera footage from inside a shop in the town of Arihah in Syria's Idlib province, recorded on Oct. 20, 2021, shows backpack-laden school children seeking refuge from incoming Syrian regime artillery, when one of the high-explosive rounds impacts directly in front of the shop, sending deadly shrapnel into the group of civilians.
As the dust settles, three bodies can be seen on the ground. One is of an already dead child, another will be dead before the video finishes, and a third appears to be a boy of approximately 10-years-of-age writhing in agony, painting the floor with blood as he drags himself away from the corpses of his peers. His lower leg appears to be stripped of all flesh, and his foot remains attached only by bone. He briefly checks his macabre injury before balling up onto the filthy floor and awaiting his grim fate.
This is not a fluke occurrence in Syria, but rather a perpetual hell that has repeated itself daily for over a decade. Syrian President Bashar al Assad's primary tactic throughout the war against his own people has been a blanket-punishment of deadly strikes on civilian residential areas with a seemingly endless supply of Russian-delivered bombs.
According to an al Jazeera report, the regime shelling shown in the video resulted in the deaths of 11 civilians, multiple of which were children. The report also indicated that the bombardment may have been retribution for a rebel IED operation which killed 14 Syrian soldiers.
To further clarify that: Syrian rebels attacked a legitimate military target, and the Syrian government responded by intentionally killing children as punishment.
