Syrian rebel mortar fire hit the Chinese embassy in Damascus today, injuring one employee and doing some damage to the building. Chinese officials condemned the strike, saying it was a violation of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.
Reports from the site say that embassy workers were seen cleaning up debris, mostly glass as the shelling shattered a number of windows. There was no indication that day-to-day activities at the embassy were effected.
The strike was the second embassy hit in the past two weeks, after an attack last Sunday hit the Russian embassy, wounding three workers. A third strike in the same neighborhood also hit the Iraqi consulate, killing a worker there.
Though there haven’t been claims of responsibility and there was some initial speculation that the Russia hit may have been accidental, it seems increasingly unlikely that this is the case, since they are hitting the sites of Assad government allies.
What Vienna convention or international law. 1-these people have no idea nor willing to respect the basic human laws and for china refereeing them to Vienna or international laws is a well placed political language with no effect whatsoever. 2-during the Balkan war USA deliberately bombed the Chinese embassy, there some employee and few journalists were killed yet the Bill Clinton blamed it on a wrong CIA map. These terrorists simply inviting China to star a war with them, as Bill Clinton and Madeline Albright did by bombing Chinese embassy. Question is what China is going to do, let it go as they did in Yugoslavia?
..And you wouldn´s expect the mediaeval, wahhabi bearded trolls on Saudi pay-roll to know the difference, but the infamous Wookie, Bandar-Bush do. He´s the one directing his orc´s according to whatever motivates his anger. He also had the guts to threaten Mighty Vlad in person. I believe the day´s of the blood stained Wookie is numbered…
