  • In the Name of the Displaced Afrin People in Shehba to the World Health Organization
    الهﻻل اﻷحمر الكردي HEYVA SOR A KURD فرع عفرين ŞAXÊ EFRÎNÊ In the name of the displaced Afrin people in Shehba To the World Health Organization The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), in cooperation with the World Health Organization (WHO), issued a report regarding the emergence of corona virus (COVID-19) in the Syrian Republic on / 11th of March 2020 /, the report stated that the Syrian Ministry of Health confirmed the negative of all cases that were suspected and no one was infected. To counter the threat of the virus, the World Health Organization provides all means of support and assistance to the Syrian Ministry of Health to supplement its ability and preparedness to address this epidemic by providing detection and monitoring equipment, training health personnel in several governorates, and providing quarantine centers in addition to holding workshops aimed at enhancing awareness and understanding the risks of the epidemic. The report stated that the readiness of isolation centers was confirmed in / 6 / areas, namely (Damascus, Aleppo, Deir Al-Zour, Homs, Lattakia and Qamishli) and a health center is currently being established that deals with corona cases in Dwer region in the Damascus countryside. What about more than two hundred thousand displaced people in the northern countryside of Aleppo (Al-Shahba)? Through the report, we see great efforts to help the Syrians ward off the threat of this epidemic, but it is very clear that they forgot a very large geographical spot in which thousands of displaced people are present, and whose presence has reached two years, amid great disregard from the World Health Organization and the Syrian government as well.

  • Highlights Situation Overview
    Syria Crisis Bi-Weekly Situation Report No. 05 (as of 22 May 2016) This report is produced by the OCHA Syria Crisis offices in Syria, Turkey and Jordan. It covers the period from 7-22 May 2016. The next report will be issued in the second week of June. Highlights Rising prices of fuel and basic food items impacting upon health and nutritional status of Syrians in several governorates Children and youth continue to suffer disproportionately on frontlines Five inter-agency convoys reach over 50,000 people in hard-to-reach and besieged areas of Damascus, Rural Damascus and Homs Seven cross-border consignments delivered from Turkey with aid for 631,150 people in northern Syria Millions of people continued to be reached from inside Syria through the regular programme Heightened fighting displaces thousands in Ar- Raqqa and Ghouta Resumed airstrikes on Dar’a prompting displacement 13.5 M 13.5 M 6.5 M 4.8 M People in Need Targeted for assistance Internally displaced Refugees in neighbouring countries Situation Overview The reporting period was characterised by evolving security and conflict dynamics which have had largely negative implications for the protection of civilian populations and humanitarian access within locations across the country. Despite reaffirmation of a commitment to the country-wide cessation of hostilities agreement in Aleppo, and a brief reduction in fighting witnessed in Aleppo city, civilians continued to be exposed to both indiscriminate attacks and deprivation as parties to the conflict blocked access routes to Aleppo city and between cities and residential areas throughout northern governorates. Consequently, prices for fuel, essential food items and water surged in several locations as supply was threatened and production became non-viable, with implications for both food and water security of affected populations.

    03 James Levantine_Antiguo Oriente 08/06/2018 04:37 p.m. Página 57 THE LEVANTINE WAR-RECORDS OF RAMESSES III: CHANGING ATTITUDES, PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE* PETER JAMES [email protected] Independent researcher London, United Kingdom Summary: The Levantine War-Records of Ramesses III: Changing Attitudes, Past, Present and Future This paper begins with a historiographic survey of the treatment of Ramesses III’s claimed war campaigns in the Levant. Inevitably this involves questions regarding the so-called “Sea Peoples.”1 There have been extraordinary fluctuations in attitudes towards Ramesses III’s war records over the last century or more—briefly reviewed and assessed here. His lists of Levantine toponyms also pose considerable problems of interpretation. A more systematic approach to their analysis is offered, concentrat- ing on the “Great Asiatic List” from the Medinet Habu temple and its parallels with a list from Ramesses II. A middle way between “minimalist” and “maximalist” views of the extent of Ramesses III’s campaigns is explored. This results in some new iden- tifications which throw light not only on the geography of Ramesses III’s campaigns but also his date. Keywords: Ancient Egypt – Canaan – Late Bronze Age – War Records – Toponymy Resumen: Los registros de la guerra levantina de Ramsés III: Actitudes cam- biantes, pasado, presente y futuro Este artículo comienza con un recorrido historiográfico del tratamiento de las supues- tas campañas bélicas de Ramsés III en el Levante.

  • The Social History of Surgery in Ottoman Syria: Documentary Evidence from Eighteenth-Century Hamah
    Postprint von: Liebrenz - Social History of Surgery. In: Turkish Historical Review 5 (2014). 32-58. https://doi.org/10.1163/18775462-00501006 The Social History of Surgery in Ottoman Syria: Documentary Evidence From Eighteenth-Century Hamah Boris Liebrenz Orientalisches Institut, Universität Leipzig, Germany [email protected] Abstract Little is known about the role of surgery in pre-modern medical practice in general, and in the lands under Muslim dominance in particular. There is an acknowledged gap between theoretical knowledge and medical practice, but evidence of the latter is difficult to find. Many fundamental questions therefore remain unanswered. For example, was there a division of labour between surgeons and physicians? We are also mostly ignorant about who practiced surgery, the legal context surrounding this practice, and its financial aspects. This article offers an analytical edition of two documents from the Syrian town Hamah dating from 1212/1798, which can help answer some of these questions. They concern a respected and learned physician who also personally performed the removal of bladder stones and was paid well for his services. Keywords surgery – lithotomy – bladder stone – medical practice – Ottoman Syria – Hamah Although several researchers have recently taken up the study of medicine in the lands under Muslim dominion with a view to highlighting its social history, our first-hand knowledge of medical practitioners, the conditions of their work, and their social standing remains scant. A relatively large amount has been written about medicine in the Ottoman period, but the focus has tended to be on the capital and major administrative centres. Our understanding of the work of physicians who practiced outside the centres of 1 Postprint von: Liebrenz - Social History of Surgery.
