The situation in Aleppo is nothing less than a massacre. The Syrian army has taken over a large part of Aleppo and it is bombing the entire city without any discrimination. It is feared that the death toll will continue to rise. It is feared that a large number of civilians would lose their lives if they are unable to escape the raids, chemical weapons and falling bombs. One feels sorry for failing Aleppo. Still, sorry is not enough for how much we have failed the citizens of Aleppo and all Syrians whose lives were, and are being devastated by this war. Sorry is so hollow of an apology in a world full of apathy. We all watched as Aleppo was torn to pieces, but we did nothing. There is no humanity in the humans of this world. Aleppo has fallen.
The ongoing war paved the way for other countries’ troops to destroy the city even more. Between the government and the rebel forces, innocent civilians have become the victims of this heinous genocide. Syria, Aleppo, I am sorry we all let you down. I am sorry we failed you and watched as you were murdered and raped. Forgive us.
