Draft press statement
The
members of the Security Council strongly condemned the killing and
abduction of more than one hundred Assyrians by ISIL on 23 February
2015 in the North-East of Syria as well as destruction and
desecration of Christian religious sites. Such crimes once again
demonstrate the brutality of ISIL which is responsible for thousands
of crimes and abuses against people from all faiths, ethnicities and
nationalities and without regard to any basic value of humanity.
The
members of the Security Council strongly condemned all acts of
violence against civilians including those committed on the basis of
their ethnicity, religion or belief.
The
members of the Security Council demanded the immediate and
unconditional release of all those abducted by terrorist groups, and
stressed that those responsible for such heinous acts must be held
accountable.
