Evacuations resume in Syria after bombings

The evacuation and transfer of thousands of Syrians from four besieged areas resumed on Wednesday, according to the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR).
The reciprocal evacuations from the two pro-government villages of Foua and Kefraya and the two opposition-held towns of Zabadani and Madaya was disrupted by a
bombing on Saturday that killed more than 120 people.
A large convoy of buses from Foua and Kefraya reached the edge of the rebel-held transit point of Rashidin outside the city of Aleppo.
"The process has resumed with 3,000 people leaving Foua and Kefraya at dawn and nearly 300 leaving Zabadani and two other rebel-held areas," the head of the SOHR, Rami Abdel Rahman, told the AFP news agency.
After last weekend's bomb attack, dozens of parents who had come from the government-controlled areas said their children had gone missing as survivors were rushed to nearby hospitals in opposition-held areas.
"It's really a de sperate situation," Simmons said, adding that many worried parents were posting appeals on Facebook for their children to be located and retrieved
"What must be worse than anything for anybody are that injured children who have been stuck on the opposition side after the bombing; not seeing their parents, not being with their parents," Simmons said.
