US Eases Humanitarian Aid Restrictions on Syria for 6 Months, Supports New Government Led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham
Jan 6, 2025, 12:00 PM
The Biden administration plans to announce on Monday the easing of restrictions on humanitarian aid to Syria, aiming to speed up the delivery of basic supplies without lifting the broader sanctions that remain in place against the country. This move is intended to support the new government in Damascus, led by a coalition of opposition groups including Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, which ousted President Bashar al-Assad. The decision reflects a cautious approach by the U.S., which is wary of the new leadership's direction but seeks to facilitate humanitarian relief through a 6-month waiver.
