Any violation of Syrian airspace will be considered foreign aggression Damascus, February 24 (RHC)-- Syria has warned against any violation of its airspace, emphasizing that such an encroachment will be treated as a “foreign act of aggression” and duly confronted. Syria’s official news agency SANA, citing a statement released by the General Command of the Army and Armed Forces, says the country's air defense units have been ordered to open fire on any foreign aircraft violating the Syrian airspace. “Any warplane that will infiltrate the Syrian airspace will be dealt with as a hostile target. It will be hunted down and destroyed once discovered," warned the statement. Late on February 13, Syria's air defenses intercepted an Israeli missile attack shortly after launch from over the occupied Golan Heights. “Our air defenses confronted an Israeli attack" west of Damascus, SANA reported at the time, adding that they “were able to shoot down most of the enemy missiles before they reached their targets.” Meanwhile, Syrian government forces pounded the positions of members of the Jabhat Fateh al-Sham, formerly known as al-Nusra Front, Takfiri terrorist group in a number of areas in the southern countryside of the northwestern city of Ma’arat al-Nu’man, located 33 kilometers south of Idlib. SANA reported that Syrian soldiers monitored the movement of the extremists on the outskirts of Kafr Nabl town in addition to Maarzita and Ftireh villages on Sunday. The strikes resulted in cutting off the supply routes of the militants, and destruction of their fortified positions. Separately, Turkey reportedly refused to offer its own Syrian proxies refuge in the wake of advances by Syrian government forces in the northeastern province of Hasakah. https://www.radiohc.cu/index.php/en/noticias/internacionales/215148-any-violation-of-syrian-airspace-will- be-considered-foreign-aggression Radio Habana Cuba.

This is done through collecting, analyzing and sharing information on the humanitarian situation in Syria. To this end, the Assistance Coordination Unit through the Information Management Unit established a wide net- work of enumerators who have been recruited depending on specific criteria such as education level, association with information sources and ability to work and communicate under various conditions. IMU collects data that is difficult to reach by other active international aid actors, and pub- lishes different types of information products such as Need Assessments, Thematic Reports, Maps, Flash Reports, and Interactive Reports. 2 Field Developments in Idleb, Northern Hama Countryside, Western Situation Report and Southern Aleppo Countryside During March and April 2019 May 2019 During March and April 2019 3 Field Developments in Idleb, Northern Hama Countryside, Western and Southern Aleppo Countryside During March and April 2019 01.

25 – 31 March, 2020
WEEKLY REPORT 25 – 31 March, 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Northeast Syria ● The Kurdish self-administration (KSA) announced additional mitigation measures for the spread of COVID-19 and implemented previously reported measures through its security apparatus across its territories, including IDP camps. The KSA and Government of Syria (GoS) also began preparing quarantine centers across Hospitals of Al-Hasakeh city. ● Screenings for symptoms of COVID-19 are not being comprehensively implemented at informal river crossings in KSA-held Deir-ez-Zor governorate as civilians are passing without being screened. Meanwhile, the Abu Kamal border crossing continued to allow Iranian militias to pass without screening them for symptoms of COVID-19. ● Islamic State (ISIS) prisoners attempted to escape from a covert prison in Al-Hasakeh city in Al-Hasakeh governorate and from Kisreh Prison in Kisreh town in Deir-ez-Zor governorate. Northwest Syria ● Despite the SSG’s denial of the presence of COVID-19 in the northwest, the SSG has increased its mitigation measures. It is highly likely that the spread of COVID-19 in Idleb and western Aleppo governorates would lead to a new humanitarian crisis, particularly due to the estimated 1.1 million IDPs residing in overcrowded camps, and the northwest’s crippled healthcare system which is currently ill-equipped to deal with such a crises. ● Local sources in Azaz city maintain that the public have not taken the measures seriously and the majority continue to gather in public spaces. ● The SIG’s Support Coordination Unit received 600 COVID-19 examination kits from the WHO. This is reportedly the first batch from a total of 2,000 kits promised.
