120 children slaughtered in Syria's Tal Abyad
Terrorists affiliated to al-Nusra Front have massacred 120 children and 330 men and women in Syria's northern district of Tal Abyad, al-Alam reports. ● According to our reporter, terrorists attacked villages in Tal Abyad, near al-Hasakah governorate on Monday, killing civilians including women and children. The Kurdish dominated region of Tal Abyad located in north of Al-Raqqa governorate, was already volatile after terrorist groups from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant and al-Nusra Front attacked the region weeks ago to take it under control. Deadly clashes have been going on in the region as Kurds gathered volunteer fighters and started to stand against terrorists. Videos posted online by the militant groups showed hundreds of women and children in Tall `Aran, lying dead on the ground after their homes and plant fields were bombed. ● Kurds have come under attack in Aleppo as well, where earlier this week terrorists launched an assault on Tall `Aran and Tall Hasel, killing and abducting many people and forcing others to leave. Mass killings at the hands of terrorists have been increasing in Syria during the past month. Syrian President Bashar al-Assad said on Sunday that the Syrian army has no option but to continue its operations against terrorists while political means have been stalled due to changing stances by the Syrian Western-backed opposition. ● Residents said the brutal attack on their homes reminded them of the Kurdish genocide, called al-Anfal Campaign, committed by slain Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein in the late 1980s.
