EU Launches Humanitarian Air Bridge to Syria Amid Worsening Crisis, Says Carl Skau of WFP
Dec 13, 2024, 11:26 AM
The humanitarian crisis in Syria has worsened, prompting the European Union to launch a new Humanitarian Air Bridge operation aimed at delivering emergency healthcare and essential supplies to those in need. Carl Skau, the deputy executive director of the UN World Food Programme (WFP), described the situation in Syria as a 'triple crisis' resulting from a 13-year civil war and an influx of displaced persons fleeing the ongoing Israel-Hezbollah conflict. This initiative comes as the UN WFP continues its efforts to support the most vulnerable populations affected by these conflicts. The air bridge operation signifies a critical response from the EU to address the escalating humanitarian demands in the region.
