"Kuwait" Any military escalation in Idlib would result in humanitarian disaster

Any military escalation in Idlib, Syria would result in humanitarian disaster, as women, elderly, children, and patients will pay the price of such action.
"As the international community witnessed the consequences of similar steps in the remaining parts of Syria, which were classified as escalation reduction areas", a Kuwaiti senior diplomat said.
This came in Kuwait's speech before the United Nations' session on Syria held on Wednesday given by Kuwait's Permanent Representative to UN Ambassador Mansour Al-Otaibi.
Al-Otaibi offered thanks to the Russian delegation for briefing the UN Security Council on the Astana summit's results which were held last Friday in Tehran, Iran, during which the participants discussed the situation in Syria, and especially in Idlib.
"The session coincided with the anniversary of the terrorist attacks that took place in the 11th of September 2001 that resulted in the death of thousands of innocent US nationals, and Kuwait renews its support and condolences to the families of the victims", he said.
"We reassure our vow to work with our partners and allies to terminate terrorism that poses a great threat to international peace and security as well as our active role in the international alliance to terminate the so-called Islamic State (IS)", he said.
He called on all involved parties to continue engaging in dialogues in order to reach a peaceful solution for the situation in Idlib, he said.
He expressed his extreme concern regarding the latest reports issued by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), revealing the displacement of 30,000 Syrians from Idlib due to the latest developments.
He renewed his call to the UN that in case a comprehensive military operation in Idlib, thus, the greatest humanitarian disaster with highest loss of people in the 21st century would definitely take place, he added.
He renewed his support to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres' statement on August 29 as he appealed to the Syrian government and all involved parties to exercise restraint as well as Astana summit members to find a peaceful solution to the situation in Idlib.
He called for offering more time and care to diplomatic efforts to avoid further bloodshed, hoping that the meetings held by the United Nations Special Envoy for Syria, Staffan de Mistura, today and yesterday in Geneva will contribute to finding solutions to save the lives of innocent civilians.
