BEIRUT, LEBANON (10:15 P.M.) – The so-called “Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham” (ISIS) decided to destroy the most important source of gas to civilians in Syria on Sunday, leaving millions without proper heating during these frigid months.
The Islamic State’s official media wing released footage of their terrorists planting explosives inside the Hayyan Gas Company factory in eastern Homs, shortly before detonating the bombs on Sunday afternoon.
As a result of this terrorist attack by the Islamic State, millions of Syrians will have to find alternative sources of heating in order to warm their homes this winter.
For the civilians of Damascus, the destruction of the Hayyan Gas Company factory could not come at a worse time, as they have been without water for more than two weeks now.
