FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
Rebels deny they target the media. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for
Human Rights confirmed the raid and the deaths of several employees, but had
no other information.
Information Minister Omran al-Zoebi told reporters outside the station that
gunmen stormed the compound, placed explosives and then detonated them.
“What happened today is a massacre, a massacre against the freedom of the
press,” al-Zoebi said in comments broadcast on state-run Syrian TV. “They
carried out a terrifying massacre by executing the employees.”
An employee at the station said several other employees were wounded in the
attack and other guards were kidnapped when the gunmen attacked just before
4 a.m. local time.
The employee, who did not give his name for fear of repercussions, said the
gunmen drove him about 200 meters (yards) away, and then he heard the
explosion of the station being demolished. “I was terrified when they
blindfolded me and took me away,” the man said by telephone.
State-run Syrian TV showed a demolished structure without a ceiling, saying it
was the station’s main studio. It also showed what it said were tapes on
fire amid piles of debris.
