US calls for international observers in Aleppo to oversee evacuation
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe United States is calling for international observers to be sent to Aleppo to oversee the evacuation of civilians following reports that Syrian forces had executed people during house-to-house searches.
US Ambassador Samantha Power tells an emergency Security Council meeting that the observers would “oversee the safe evacuation of the people who wish to leave but who, justifiably fear that if they try, they will be shot in the street or carted off to one of Assad’s gulags.”
