Judicial Council Report on Vaccine Deaths Leaked

Zaman al-Wasl has published exclusively a special report from the Free Syrian Judicial Council on the death of 36 children in September after receiving tainted measles vaccines under a U.N.-sponsored program in the rebel-held north of Syria.

 

The report details all the circumstances around what has been dubbed the "Measles Massacre", including the full names of the children who died on September 9 in the towns of Jirjanaz and Maaret al-Nouman in the northeastern province of Idleb.

 

Zaman al-Wasl hopes the report will illuminate more facts about the case to the Syrian public and international human rights organizations.
