TEHRAN (Defapress) - Residents of the 2 Shiite cities of Nubl and Al-Zahraa, who evacuated these two cities following the attack by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham terrorists and are living in the Al-Safirah area in the outskirts of Aleppo, have been surrounded by terrorists.
Reports indicate that the Takfiri terrorists are not allowing the Syrian Red Crescent to transfer them to a safe area. The residents of these two cities, which number nearly 2,000 people, including women, children, and the elderly, have been without food and water for almost 3 days, and the extreme cold is threatening the lives of some of them.
One of the citizens of this city asked international organizations to pressure the terrorists to ensure their safe transfer to Homs or Damascus.
Nubl and Al-Zahraa are two cities located 5 kilometers apart, 20 kilometers from the northern outskirts of Aleppo, and 40 kilometers from the Turkish border. These two Shiite cities were besieged by terrorists between 2012 and 2015, until they were broken on February 16, 2015, by a coalition of Syrian and Iranian forces against the Takfiris, which brought further strategic victories for the Syrian forces.
