Syrian regime forces are dropping Idlib banned cluster bombs and targeting hospitals

Obliterating the medical centers cuts crucial lifelines for civilians caught up in the fighting as Syrian regime forces fight for control of the final opposition area with rebel groups.

Under international law, deliberately attacking medical facilities and civilian areas is considered a war crime.

Amnesty's Lynn Maalouf said: "This is part of a well-established pattern of medical facilities aimed at systematically attacking civilians and constitutes crimes against humanity." Many independent and international human rights groups and non-governmental organizations are struggling to get their own people on the ground in Idlib to gather first-hand evidence because of the sec.

We find fear and nervousness in every hospital we go to in Idlib. And rightly so. Hospitals are among today's most dangerous places in this part of Syria and doctors do one of the most risky jobs in them.
