4. SOUNDBITE (English) Bashar Jaafari, Permanent Representative of Syrian Arab Republic to the United Nations:
“Definitely, we have credible information that the so called US alliance struck the hospital in the northern part of Syria, but of course as usual the easiest way for them is to trigger a campaign – hostile campaign- against the Syrian government within the media to accuse and defame the Syrian government or our allies the Russians of doing so and being behind such criminal act against a hospital.”

6. SOUNDBITE (English) Bashar Jaafari, Permanent Representative of Syrian Arab Republic to the United Nations:
“The so called hospital was installed without any prior consultation with the Syrian government by the so called French network called Medecins sans Frontiers, which is a branch of the French intelligence operating in Syria. So, they assumed the full consequences of their act because they did not consult with the Syrian government and they did not operate with the Syrian government permission.”
