(Zaman Al Wasl)- The regime army
and Russian warplanes have renewed aerial and ground attacks on the
Turkmen-dominated village of Harbanfaseh town in Hama province,
residents said on Wednesday.
Russia's warplanes have carried out at least 600 air strikes on Turkmen villages in the southern countryside in one month that have displaced 10,000 people, rebel commander told Zaman al-Wasl.
Harbanafseh, Kissin and Burj Qaei have been under heavy aerial bombing by Russia jets, an assault reflects a clear Russian vengeance from Turkey since Ankara shot down a Russian warplane last November, activists and displaced Turkmen families said.
Russia warplanes conducted at least 50 raids on rebel-held areas in Homs and Hama, residents said Wednesday.
The military offensive has cut off 120,000 people in the northern Homs since mid-January, worsening hunger and killing patients unable to get to medical care, a U.N. report said lat week.
"There are reports of increasingly acute shortages of food, basic commodities, medical items and fuel in the area. With the irregular supply routes used until mid-January now cut off, food items that are still available are now being sold at much higher prices," said the report by the U.N. humanitarian office.
