The free Syrian Army and the Islamic brigade group claimed responsibility for bombing National Security building in central Damascus yesterday 18/07/2012; this was during the meeting of senior state officials, the suicidal bombing of one of the guards inside the building resulted in the death of the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defense, his deputy as well, Minister of Interior, son- in- law of the Syrian president, President of the crisis cell and other senior officials.
The bombing comes after three days of clashes inside Damascus, and the declaration of the process named "Damascus volcano" by the opposition forces.
AAPSO considers this escalation a decisive turn shows the system's inability to resolve this crisis in Syria as a result of the persistent continuous ignorance to all the initiatives that aimed at resolving the crisis in a peaceful compromising manner. AAPSO appeals to all parties without exceptions to the need of respecting human rights, stop the brutal massacres immediately, stop this blood flood and maintain the unity of Syria to transmit to the democratic system that respects human rights and takes into account the aspirations of the Syrian people.
