Atassi: Assad Regime Uses The Weapon Of Starvation Against The Syrian People ACU’s head Suhair Atassi calls on the international community to put pressure on Russia and Iran to lift the siege imposed by the Assad regime on a number of areas in Syria. “The Assad regime did not stop at using chemical weapons against the Syrian people, but also used the weapon of starvation,” referring to the death of a number of residents of the Yarmouk Camp in Damascus due to hunger. “The United Nations entered all areas of Syria to search for chemical weapons, but they do not send a little bread to the trapped civilians,” she said.
