USA: More Aid Needed For Syrians As Winter Approaches: UN Humanitarian Chief
UNITED NATIONS, Oct 28 (NNN-AGENCIES) – UN Undersecretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, Martin Griffiths, said yesterday, more aid is needed for Syrians, as winter approaches.
Daily life in Syria is becoming less and less affordable. Over 90 percent of the population now live below the poverty line. Many people are forced to make very difficult choices to make ends meet, and thus, face greater risks of exploitation, he told the Security Council.
