Government bombing burns crops in Syria's Hama

[NPASYRIA] On Tuesday, artillery shells and missile strikes by the Syrian government forces caused fires in the crops of the Ghab Plain region, west of Hama, northwest Syria.

The government forces targeted, from their positions in Jorin Camp, the agricultural lands in the vicinity of the town of Ziyarah and the villages of al-Mashik and al-Gargour in the Gab Plain, with missiles and heavy artillery shells, local sources told North Press.

The bombing caused fires in crops near the town of al-Ziyarah, where the area was estimated at about 30 acres of wheat and nigella crops, the sources added.

The sources indicated that the bombing and the presence of the lands close to the government forces’ checkpoints prevented the Civil Defense teams from reaching the aforementioned area.

The government’s deliberate bombing of agricultural lands in the Ghab Plain area has caused the burning of about 350 acres of wheat, barley and nigella crops, within less than a week.

There are large spaces that have not yet been harvested, in light of the residents’ fear of being targeted by the government forces stationed in Jorin Camp in the Ghab Plain and the surrounding checkpoints, according to sources from the area.

#1 I told you time and time again, Mahmood. Do NOT put the S-300 in the middle of a wheat field!
