MISTURA

 

"In Syria, what we are hearing and seeing is only fighting, offensives, counter-offensives, rockets, barrel bombs, mortars, hellfire cannons, napalm, chlorine, snipers, airstrikes, suicide bombers. Not one single convoy in one month has reached any of the humanitarian besieged areas. Not one single convoy. And why? Because of one thing: fighting."
