Rebels Poison Water supply In Syrian Capital Damascus
The Syrian capital Damascus has been without water for five days. Authorities have accused “terrorist groups” of deliberately poisoning water resources and the government cut off water to Damascus on Friday after concerns that rebel groups west of the city had poisoned wells and pipes. While media in the West has blamed the Syrian government for disrupting the water supply, there is evidence that rebels are behind the crisis, with renewed video threats. RT’s Lizzie Phelan reports. Damascus continues to be considered the safest place in Syria.
