SAMS Calls for the Renewal of Syria s Last Cross-Border Aid Lifeline - Syrian Arab Republic

SAMS Calls for the Renewal of Syria’s Last Cross-Border Aid Lifeline Format In 2015, the UN Security Council passed a resolution that established Syria’s cross-border aid mechanism. Since then, humanitarian assistance and programs have provided a vital lifeline to millions of Syrian civilians affected by the ten-year conflict. The resolution, which must be renewed annually by the Security Council has faced considerable reductions in scope since January 2020, when two of the four original border crossing points authorized by the resolution – one in the northeast and one in the southwest – were cut from the resolution. In July 2020, a third crossing was cut in northwest Syria, leaving the entire burden of the cross-border response in the hands of a single crossing in northwest Syria. Even as access has diminished, needs have grown. The COVID-19 pandemic and associated economic downturn have dramatically worsened the situation, with needs increasing 20% in the past year.
