RNA - During the meeting in Astana on Tuesday, Jaberi Ansari underlined Iran's support for the UN mission to help resolve the crisis in Syria, and emphasized the need for concurrent attention to the humanitarian, political and security dimensions of this crisis.

 

He also called for serious action to resolve the humanitarian crisis in Fua'a and Kafraya as well as other regions in Syria and dispatch of humanitarian aid to the two towns.

 

Strugar, for his part, appreciated Iran's role in efforts to resolve the problems in Syria, and underscored UN's readiness to help the success of Astana talks.

 

Terrorists have been targeting non-military areas in Fua'a and Kafraya with hundreds of missiles and mortar shells in the last several years, killing and wounding hundreds of civilians, including women and children.

 

The terrorists have kept a tight siege on the two towns for more three years now, while they have also stationed snipers to target any civilian who wants to seek help from outside or disobeys the militants' rules.

 

Many residents of Fua'a and Kafraya, specially children, are suffering infectious diseases, including shingles disease, with no access to drugs to treat or even soothe their pains.

 

The snipers are hunting down innocent civilians, including women and children, adding to the pains of the residents of these two regions amid international mum on the terrorists' crimes.
