A UN official has accused the Syrian regime of not allowing the delivery of aid to the civilians in the Palestinian refugee camp of al-Yarmouk in Damascus.
Jan Egeland special adviser to the UN special envoy for Syria told a news conference at the UN headquarters in Geneva on Thursday after a scheduled humanitarian taskforce meeting.
Egeland affirmed that the war in Syria did not start to be over as some people think but it subsided in areas and moved intensively to other battle zones including al-Yarmouk camp.
He pointed out that the Syrian regime forces and militias intensified their military attacks on Idlib province and Yarmouk camp.
“We are asking for access now to Yarmouk we are asking for a convoy to Yarmouk but we’re prevented from going there it was actually the place that we were even not approved on our list; we often get a ‘yes’ on the list to go to places and then we are prevented in reality” he said.
