SI expresses concern over situation in north-eastern Syria

London, Oct 10 (UNI) The Socialist International (SI) has said that "unilateral" Turkish military action in north-eastern Syria can have severe consequences for regional stability, human rights and the continuing fight against terrorism.
In a statement on Wednesday, the SI said it is deeply concerned by the potential implications of unilateral Turkish military action in north-eastern Syria
"Any escalation in fighting in the north east of Syria will mean further suffering and trauma, caused by increased violence and the potential displacement of hundreds of thousands of civilians living in the region. Humanitarian aid may be disrupted to those living in displaced people's camps, placing at most risk those who have already been forced to leave their homes and are dependent on this assistance," it added.
