Rabat (IINA) – The Islamic Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ISESCO) called on the international community to assume its political and moral responsibilities to lifting the criminal blockade by the Syrian regime forces and Lebanon's Hezbollah sectarian militia, against the town of Madaya where over 42,000 people, mostly women and children, are suffering from hunger, diseases and lack of minimum means of human life.
ISESCO said in a statement on Sunday that the shocking images leaked from the stricken town are no less heinous than those committed by the Nazi regime in Germany against ethnic groups who were besieged in concentration camps and subjected to crimes against humanity. It considered "the weakness of the international community in front of this brutal crime, which is by all standards a war of extermination, as a great shame on the international powers claiming concern for the human rights and international peace and security."
ISESCO urged the member states to demand the UN's immediate intervention to lift this criminal blockade and to deliver food, medicines and clothes to the trapped civilians in order to save their lives from the brutal sectarian regime and its supporting countries and militias, in a flagrant violation of the international law
