UNSC to discuss extending humanitarian aid to northwestern Syria via Türkiye

On July 10, the UN Security Council will discuss two draft resolutions to extend the delivery of humanitarian supplies to northwestern Syria through Türkiye.

The draft resolutions provide for the extension of the delivery of humanitarian aid through the Bab Al-Hawa checkpoint on the Syrian-Turkish border by 6 and 12 months, respectively, Anadolu reports, with reference to the Associated Press.

A draft resolution to extend the delivery of humanitarian aid for a year was developed by Brazil and Switzerland, while Russia insists on a six-month period.
