Humanitarian aids fired by terrorists over Syrian towns

A plane carrying humanitarian aids, including food and medicine, flew over the surrounded towns of Foua and Kafraya in Syiran province Idlib on Saurday.

A few minutes after airdropping the packages, terrorists in the town of Binnish, in southwestern Foua, targeted the packages. As the result of the shooting 23 mm shells, a number of aid packages were set on fire in the air.

The two towns Foua and Kafraya, 10 km to the northern city of Idlib have been under a full siege by terrorists since March 28, 2015, following the fall of Idlib in northwetrn Syria, bordering Turkey. The towns are shelled by the terrorists almost every day.

Binnish, Ta'um, Taftnaz, Ram Hamdan and Maarrat Misrin are the main strongholds of the terrorists from which they target the two predominantly-shia towns.

Food aids to the two towns, whose residents have no access to the preliminary life and medical requirements, is sent through parachute drops.

Some 8,000 people were allowed to exit the two towns in March 2017 in exchange for the thousands of terrorists and their family members leaving Madaya, Al-Zabadani and Bloudan.

The evacuation of the two towns stopped as the result of the terrorists blocking the process.
