In continuation of the policy of besieging the rebellious areas as a systematic collective punishment, the regime forces closed, on 13-10-2013, all entrances to Eastern Gouta in Damascus Suburbs a day before “Eid Al-Adha” when the area has already been under a heavy almost complete siege for over a year, and experiencing very deteriorated human conditions especially in regard of the medical and relief matters as well as fuel and everyday essential needs. With the complete closure of the area, hundreds of thousands of civilians, especially children, are facing death out of extreme hunger in a bitter experience that is very similar to that people in Mo’adamieh in Damascus Suburbs and other southern areas in Damascus are going through, at the top of which are Yarmouk Camp and Hajar Aswad which has been besieged for several months.
