UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres welcomed the agreement with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to open the Bab al-Salam and al-Raee crossings for a three months period. Currently, the UN is only able to send the necessary aid to the northwestern region of Syria through the Bab al-Hawa border crossing with the permission of Russia.
It should be mentioned that this announcement was published after the meeting between Assad and Martin Griffiths, the head of humanitarian affairs of the United Nations, in Damascus on Monday.
