ARMENIAN DISTRICT FACES FRESH MISSILE RAID IN SYRIA'S ALEPPO
11:27 * 04.07.14
Syria's Armenian-populated neighborhood of Nor Kyugh has come under
fresh rocket attacks while the tensions between militant rebels and
government forces continue in the country.
The local Armenian weekly Gandzasar says in a Facebook post that two
Armenians, Harut Chorbajyan and David Meyhanachyan, were wounded in
the explosion of a makeshift missile on Thursday night.
Deaths are reported among the servicemen conducting the defense of
the district. The attack has also caused material losses, leaving
several buildings and apartments damaged.
Tert.am's sources in Aleppo say that the clashes and tensions in
the vicinities of Nor Kyugh continued throughout the night, with the
missile raids and skirmishes disturbing the population.
The shortage of water continues to remain a pressing problem in
Aleppo. The water supply network, that went out of order last month,
is said to be very difficult to repair amid the continuing clashes.
Over 1 million residents of the city do not have access to clean water.
The water dug out from the wells of school-, mosque- and church-yards
is unfit for drinking.
