SYRIA FOOD SHORTAGE! In Syria, hungry residents sell gold for food

6
In Syria’s eastern city of Deir el-Zour, supplies are running brief that distressed residents are selling their gold, valuables as well as their houses for an exit or food permit letting them escape a siege by Islamic State militants and both government troops. The extremists have blockaded government-held areas of the city for more than some of its 200,000 residents are slowly starving while, and annually troops and President supporting militias Bashar Assad use their anguish.

A lot of people live on water and bread — and there are long delays for both. Taps are shut off for days at a time, as well as the water that flows out for just several hours is brackish. The town has not had electricity with little fuel available for water pumps and generators.

The U.N. warned last week that living conditions have deteriorated considerably in Deir el-Zour. Pupils are often absent from school due to malnutrition. The sole civilian hospital that is staying wants staff as well as other materials, along with drugs.

Unverified reports mentioned up to 20 malnutrition departures, the U.N. said in its report. The Islamic State group encompasses Deir el-Zour and will not let equipment and folks in by land; the Syrian government, which controls part of its airport and the city, will not enable supplies to be brought in by air or let outside its people. Deir el-Zour is the biggest of about 15 besieged communities in Syria, cutting about 400,000 individuals from support. off U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said both the Syrian government and the rebels are perpetrating war crimes by deliberately starving civilians.

    People will give up everything rather than starve. Even in America it’s a good idea to have an emergency food supply.

    Texas Red Neck is right on the money. And I have a feeling he wants it here people. He wants a civil war in the streets. The death to more people. And hoping that its more whites. So move over whites cause muslims are taking over in obama mind to take over our country and then they will have world domination . Can all of you see the picture. This is what I think obama is working at. And watch then I think Iran may disappear. Then you might get king obama. of the world. Now this may be a little far fetched idea but seeing what is pushing him and his ideas makes on wonder.!!

    If the Obozo Regime has no conscious of what they are doing abroad and the people of the world continue with their lockjaw about it, the Obozo Regime will certainly not stop there as the INCREASING severity of WAR CRIMES spread back onto US soil….
