Russia bombs bakery belonging to IHH
Russian war planes bombed a bakery which was built by IHH in the Saraqib region of to the Idlib Governorate.
Russia, Syria 30.11.2015

Russian war planes bombed a bakery which was built by IHH in the Saraqib region of the Idlib region.

The bakery was established 16 months ago by the IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation. The 18 people who worked in the factory produced bread which served at least 50,000 people each day.

"If bakeries are attacked that means the aim is to eliminate all Syrian people.”

IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation President Bulent Yildirim, spoke harshly after the attack of Russian jets on the bakery which was run for charity, "We are face to face with a mentality who see's a loaf of bread too much for the Syrian people. If bakeries and camps are attacked, that means the aim is to eliminate all Syrian people.”

He then continued to say:

"In conflicts which the Muslim community are facing, civilians are clearly being targeted. Women and children do not seem worthwhile. International organizations working to cater for the needs of people are being targeted. Our bakery operating in Syria's Idlib governance was destroyed by Russian war jets, we are face to face with a mentality who sees a loaf of bread too much for the Syrian people. If bakeries, camps are attacked, that means the aim is to eliminate all Syrian people.”

Russia claims to be targeting ISIS in Syria however, Saraqib, Azaz and Jericho are not under ISIS control.
