Syrian Coalition Calls for Stopping the Attacks on the FSA in Aleppo and Idlib

Nasr al-Hariri, Secretary General of the Syrian Coalition, met with the leaders of 17 rebel factions to discuss the mounting attacks on the Free Syrian Army in the provinces of Aleppo and Idlib. They agreed to form a special committee whose task will be taking the appropriate action to stop these attacks on the moderate rebel factions. “We regret the current rebel infighting and self-attrition whose sole beneficiary is the Assad regime. While it impedes the wheel of the revolution, it offers free services to the Assad regime. The unification of the military and political work and the establishment of a strong and disciplined military and security institutions and supporting the interim Ministry of Defence has become an urgent necessity,” Hariri stressed. “The success of the interim government is contingent on moving into the homeland as the latest developments have proved that the homeland cannot by remotely governed. The revolution will achieve its stated goals only when politicians, citizens, and rebels combine their efforts and reach out to the revolution’s social base.” (Source: Syrian Coalition)
