Syria extends UN's access to Bab Assalama and Rae' crossing points for humanitarian aid delivery
In a move aimed at supporting stability and ameliorating the humanitarian conditions for its citizens, Syria has granted an extension of three months to the United Nations (UN) and its affiliated agencies for the use of Bab Assalama and al-Rae' crossing points.
This permission allows for the continued delivery of crucial humanitarian aid to those in need, with the extension set to conclude on November 13th.
Bassam Sabbagh, Syria's permanent representative to the United Nations, conveyed the decision, highlighting Syria's commitment to improving the overall wellbeing of its people and facilitating the distribution of essential aid. The country's emphasis on stability and the betterment of living conditions for its citizens underscores the significance of this extension.
The recent development follows Syria's earlier decision on July 13th, which permitted UN agencies to employ the Bab al-Hawa crossing point for the purpose of delivering humanitarian assistance. This concerted effort signifies Syria's dedication to cooperating with international entities to address pressing humanitarian concerns within its borders.
The extension of access to Bab Assalama and al-Rae' crossing points signifies an ongoing commitment to humanitarian aid delivery in Syria, reflecting a collaborative approach between the nation and the international community to alleviate suffering and improve the lives of those affected by ongoing challenges.
