Red Cross appeals to Syria for access to wounded
The head of the International Committee of the Red Cross appealed Friday to Syria for access to those wounded and detained in clashes with security forces, saying he would meet personally with authorities if necessary to ensure the neutral body reaches those parts of the country where violence is occurring.
"Despite repeated requests to the Syrian authorities, we have not been granted meaningful access to those in need," ICRC president Jakob Kellenberger said. (AP)
