Turkey | Syria: Humanitarian Dashboard - Cross Border Response Jan-Mar 2016 (Issued on 04 May 2016) SITUATION OVERVIEW Conflict between non-state armed opposition groups (NSAOGs), the Islamic State and Government of Syria continued during most of the first quarter of 2016, resulting in various impediments to humanitarian programming across Syria. Most notably, in the months of January and February, GoS and allies intensified attacks on civilian infrastructure, including medical facilities, schools, IDP camps, bakeries and humanitarian warehouses, stymieing humanitarian access to many vulnerable communities across Syria. This in attacks resulted in even more communities being displaced from the Northern Aleppo countryside and elsewhere in Northern Latakia. By the end of February, a ‘cessation of hostilities’ agreement brokered by the US and Russia came into effect, resulting in significant reduction in hostilities between NSAOGs and the GoS across most of Syria, allowing more access to displaced communities for many humanitarian agencies in Aleppo, Idleb, Latakia and Hama. Despite a reduction in violence, isolated incidents have continued in key areas around access routes into Aleppo City between Kurdish forces and NSAOGs, leading to intermittent impediments along the Castello Road supply route. In eastern Syria, air strikes continued to impact civilian infrastructure under ISIL control, resulting in further degradation of hospitals, as well as vital electricity and water networks in Raqqa and Aleppo governorates. Under UNSC resolution 2165/2258, UN and its partners sent 41 consignments from Turkey (16 from Bab al-Salam - BAS, 25 from Bab al-Hawa- BAH) to the Syrian Arab Republic consisting of 1,341 trucks. 1,130 of these trucks used the BAH border crossing while the remaining 211 crossed from BAS border crossing. During this period, a number of UN shipments were suspended from BAS border crossing on UNDSS advice, while other regular humanitarian and commercial shipments continued. Shipped assistance included Health supplies for 3,572,157 people (including vaccine for 2.7 million people); food aid for about 2,621,175 people; NFI and Shelter items for 327,157 people; and WASH supplies for over 147,039 people; and Education materials for 25,750 people in 4 Governorates. The highest number of beneficiaries reached are in Idleb and Aleppo. Kobane border crossing remained closed for humanitarian staff crossing and shipments since early February 2016...... continued on Page 2.
