Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence

Situation in Syria: Discussion

9:00 am

Dr. Ahmad Badreddin Hassoun:

I am a son of Aleppo. I have two hospitals, which are benevolent institutions and charities, in east Aleppo.

When the opposition entered them, they looted them and sent the equipment to Turkey. I do not say this only in front of the committee; I say it in front of God. That is why I invite the members of the committee to come to Aleppo.
