MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Earlier in the day, the international humanitarian group Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF), or Doctors Without Borders, said that at least 14 people were killed in an airstrike on a hospital in the Syrian city of Aleppo.
The ICRC said that it and the Syrian Arab Red Crescent (SARC) have been supporting most of Aleppo’s medical facilities with medicines, equipment and clean water.
"The recent attack on the ICRC-supported Quds hospital is unacceptable and sadly this is not the first time the lifesaving medical services have been hit. We urge all the parties to spare the civilians. Don't attack hospitals, don't use weapons that cause widespread damage," Valter Gros, the head of the ICRC mission in Syria, said in a statement.
The ceasefire in Syria, worked out by Russia and the United States, took effect on February 27. Terrorist groups are not part of the agreement.
