The Irish Syrian Solidarity movement

Dear Minister Coveney,

We are requesting that you represent us expeditiously at the United Nations, to demand an immediate cessation to the bombing of hospitals in Syria. We represent doctors, nurses, paramedics, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, dieticians, scientists and all those sickened by the annihilation of hospitals, staff and patients by Assad and Russian forces.

· 817 healthcare workers have been killed                                                                                                                            There has been over 450 hospital attacks                                                                                                      

  The majority of these Attacks are by Russian and Assad  forces    

  In April alone the following 15 hospitals were destroyed

 

   April 2- Maarat Nouman Hospital-Idlib

   April 4 and 16- Mercy Hospital Khan Sheikhoun-Idlib

   April 7 and 8 -Heish Clinic-Idlib

   April 17- Ikhlas Hospital Shnan-Idlib

   April 17- Erbin Hospital Eastern Ghouta

   April 22 -Central Hospital Abdin- Idlib

   April 25- Kafr Takharim Hospital- Idlib

   April 26- Naseeb Hospital -Daraa

April 27- Shamuna Ambulance and Evacuation System Maar Zeta-Idlib

These are evil war-crimes and the Geneva convention has been openly defied. The bombing of hospitals is becoming normalized as standard  warfare  and Syrian medical centres are being driven underground               Minister Coveney as our representative we ask that our demands be voiced as a matter of the greatest urgency to the United Nations
