Aleppo doctor: `Holocaust of the 21st Century against Syrian people'

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

A photo of a five year old boy sitting alone in the back of an ambulance, still and silent, coated with dust and encrusted with blood, has shocked the world. His name is Omran Daqneesh and he was pulled out of the rubble of a building struck by Russian or Syrian government airplanes in Aleppo. Dr Abou Mohamadayn, who treated Omran, tells Razia Iqbal that this crisis may be a "Holocaust of the 21st century against the Syrian people". (Photo: Omran Daqneesh.
