The UN has said it expected to be able to deliver aid to besieged Syrians “without delay” after world powers agreed a plan to cease hostilities in the war-wracked country. A statement from the UN’s Syria envoy Staffan de Mistura’s office in Geneva said.
Amid doubts over the prospect of the ceasefire agreed in Munich, representatives of 17 countries met in Geneva to discuss plans for mass aid distribution that would coincide with a pause in fighting. Friday’s Geneva meet was the first gathering of the aid task force.
