The Salvation Government denies opening a crossing with Assad regime after a relief convoy entered Idlib
Yesterday, Monday, a humanitarian aid convoy entered the Miznaz point, west of Aleppo, which is controlled by the Assad regime forces, to Idlib governorate.
The Syrian Salvation Government issued a clarification statement regarding the entry of the convoy from the Assad regime-controlled areas to Idlib Governorate, northwest Syria.
The Ministry of Development and Humanitarian Affairs of the “Salvation” government said that the trucks that entered yesterday, consisting of 15 trucks, transporting about a thousand food rations, belong to the World Food Program “WFP”.
The ministry added that the process of transferring the quotas comes within the framework of the plans of the World Food Program, to transfer the warehouses that belong to it from Aleppo Governorate to Idlib Governorate, and it is not equivalent to the 5 percent of the quantities entered through Bab Al-Hawa crossing.
The ministry stressed, “There is no truth to rumors about opening a crossing with the forces of the Assad regime, and the matter does not go beyond the transfer of the warehouses of the World Food Program, and the Al-Hilal branch of the Assad regime has nothing to do with the mission.”
The entry of trucks carrying humanitarian aid into Idlib provoked angry reactions among civilians in northwestern Syria, which they considered an attempt to save the economically degraded Assad regime, whose areas of control are experiencing successive crises at various levels.
