For the fifth day in a row, Turkish-backed armed gangs are blocking access to humanitarian aid offered by the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria to the affected people in Idlib and Afrin. The denial of access to aid for those in need is recognized as a crime against humanity under international law, especially since thousands have died due to the lack of relief. We are committed to our humanitarian duties to alleviate the people's suffering in the affected areas. As a reminder, Turkey and these armed gangs have also been cutting off drinking water supplies to approximately 1.5 million people living in al-Hasaka for a year now.
