Syria, Russia: US seizes UN aid provided to al-Rukban camp and gives it to terrorists – Syrian Arab News Agency

al-Rukban camp

SANA- The Syrian and Russian coordination bodies on the return of displaced Syrians affirmed that the US is exploiting the humanitarian situation in al-Rukban camp to seize UN aid and provide it to terrorists after it turned the camp into a center for training terrorists.

According to a joint statement issued by the two bodies, “The US, as usual, hopes to obtain aid to support terrorist groups operating under its command in the vicinity of al-Rukban camp, which has become an American factory for training extremist terrorists”.

The statement indicated that the US continues to obstruct all efforts aimed at closing this camp, and liberating the detainees in it and taking them back to their areas which have been liberated from terrorism, and this “prevents the restoration of peaceful life in Syria.’’

The statement reiterated the Syrian state’s readiness to receive all the citizens who are held by the US and its terrorist mercenaries in al-Rukban camp, and to ensure their security, in addition to providing decent living conditions for them.

Thousands of Syrians displaced by terrorism live in al-Rukban camp amid difficult humanitarian conditions and a lack of health care, food and water as they are held by the US occupation forces and their mercenaries of terrorist organizations in al-Tanf region and they prevent them from leaving the camp through the humanitarian corridors that have been opened by the Syrian and Russian sides since last year.

  1. Washington is pressuring the United Nations to deliver international assistance to an overpopulated desert refugee camp but secretly planning to use the cargo to resupply armed militias it supports, Moscow and Damascus claim.

    In a joint statement issued on Monday, the coordination headquarters of Russia and Syria insisted that their military coalition is “making significant efforts to restore peaceful life in the country and provide comprehensive assistance to Syrian citizens in voluntary and safe return to their homeland.”

    However, they add, the US is actively working to fuel fighting in the bloody civil war, which has been raging since 2011. According to the diplomatic partners, Washington has been politicizing the plight of the Rukban refugee camp, which has seen worsening conditions in recent months amid a rise in displaced civilians.

    1. The United States is using the current situation to put pressure on the UN leadership, regularly raising the topic of the need to deliver humanitarian aid to camp residents,” commanders say. “At the same time, the Americans actually expect to use this cargo to supply the militants under their control operating in the area, as has happened more than once.”

    2. The allegations that Washington’s diplomats are hoping international aid ends up in the hands of the armed groups they support is a serious one, given tough rules governing humanitarian relief shipments and the potential to politicize the process of getting supplies to those most in need.

      The joint command also slammed the fact that “the United States is conducting air strikes on the territory of a sovereign Syrian state and continues to illegally occupy its territory.” Later on Monday, Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov told journalists that an American bombing campaign has harmed the prospects of peace in the region.

    3. According to the diplomat, a recent airstrike “came at the most crucial moment” for organizing talks between Iran and the US on nuclear weapons controls. However, by targeting groups supported by Tehran, “forces in Washington took steps to disrupt this.”

      The bombing run was President Joe Biden’s first public military action as commander-in-chief. Intended to be a proportionate response to rocket attacks on American bases in the area that left one dead, a monitoring organization has since claimed Washington’s strike could have killed as many as 22 people.
