China condemns terrorist attack on Russian mobile hospital in Aleppo

Beijing, SANA – China condemned on Thursday the terrorist attack that targeted a Russian mobile hospital in Aleppo city last Monday.

“We condemn and oppose these attacks and attacks on civilians, civilian targets and aid workers during armed clashes,” said the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lu Kang in a press conference in Beijing, answering a question on Chinese reaction to the attack.

He stressed that China’s stance on the crisis in Syria is clear. “We hope that all parties will adhere to cooperation with each other to avoid clashes and a humanitarian crisis,” he added.

Terrorist organizations targeted last Monday with a rocket shell a Russian mobile hospital in al-Furqan neighborhood in Aleppo city. The attack killed two Russian medics.

Spokesman for the Russian Defense Ministry Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov said the shelling of the Russian hospital was carried out by militants from the “Syrian opposition”, holding the terrorists’ backers in the US, Britain and France responsible for the attack.
