Media Statement
Syrian Coalition
Istanbul, Turkey
July 26, 2013
The Syrian Coalition strongly condemns the car bomb explosion in the Jaramana Suburb. We offer our sincerest condolences to the families of the victims and wish a rapid recovery to the wounded.
The Syrian Coalition emphasizes that the safety of civilians, ensuring their security, protecting their properties, and securing their livelihoods are among the top priorities. The Coalition strongly objects targeting civilians, as it goes against the guiding principles of this revolution.
Assad has forced the Syrian people, over the past two years, to accept his tyranny or suffer the consequences, which include plunging the country into chaos. The international community must rise to its responsibility to support Syrians who are forced to defend themselves in order to achieve their aspirations for freedom and democracy.
We ask for mercy for our martyrs, health for our wounded, and freedom for our detainees.
Long live Syria and its people, free and with honor.
