Syria: UN humanitarian chief says no progress made on access to hard-to-reach areas
-
3 December 2013 – Reporting “modest progress” with the Syrian
Government on speeding up visa issuance and increasing the number of
relief distribution hubs, a top United Nations official said today that
with perhaps 250,000 Syrians cut off from aid in besieged communities
across the war-torn country, greater efforts are needed to ensure real
gains on the humanitarian front. “I advised the Security Council that we have seen some modest progress in terms of administrative procedures that had been put in place over time,” said Valerie Amos, the Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, as she spoke to reporters after briefing the 15-member body on the humanitarian situation in Syria.
