He stressed that humanitarian operations are now heavily restricted and called for the urgent and unimpeded delivery of essential aid. “There must be immediate and safe access to allow humanitarian organisations to reach thousands of civilians trapped in catastrophic conditions,” he urged.
Dr Mehanna pointed out that the ICRC had previously warned of reaching a stage after which even the best efforts may no longer be effective.
