star this property answer text <p>On 14 April, the United Kingdom, together with our United States and French allies, took coordinated, limited and targeted action against the Assad regime’s chemical weapons capabilities to alleviate humanitarian suffering. At the UN Security Council and the International Syria Support Group we have continued to call on all parties to protect civilians in the Syrian conflict. Secretary of State Penny Mordaunt and I (Minister of State) attended the Supporting the Future of Syria and the Region Conference on 24-25 April in Brussels, where they focused on the need to protect civilians and aid workers in Syria, and called directly on the Assad regime and its backers to enable this.</p><p> </p><p>As the second largest bilateral donor to the humanitarian response in Syria since 2011, we are providing life-saving and life-changing support for millions of people. At the Brussels Conference, the UK pledged to provide at least £450 million this year, and £300 million next year, to alleviate extreme suffering in Syria and to provide vital support in neighbouring countries.</p>

star this property answer text <p>We are gravely concerned about escalating Syrian Regime and Russian military action and its humanitarian impact in Idlib. As of 6 February, the UN reports that 586,000 people have been displaced since 1 December 2019, and many more are at risk of imminent further displacement. This financial year DFID has already allocated £103 million to organisations delivering aid cross border from Turkey primarily into North West Syria, including Idlib. This has helped to provide hundreds of thousands of vulnerable people with food, clean water, shelter, and healthcare including psychosocial support.</p><p>Given the rapidly deteriorating conditions in North West Syria, we have put options in place to increase our funding further to address the pressing needs of those displaced by the conflict. We have provided funding to response partners including the UN to preposition essential supplies to support innocent families and civilians displaced by conflict and we are supporting all our partners to respond to this humanitarian crisis. The Minister for the Middle East and North Africa visited Turkey on 5-6 February and discussed the crisis in North West Syria with UN agencies and humanitarian NGOs, as well as with Turkish authorities. DFID partners on the ground are working tirelessly to provide aid to those affected by the military offensive.</p><p> </p>

Sites hosting internally displaced people and towns are severely overcrowded, and food, shelter and water are in short supply. We are deeply concerned by reports that the intensification of hostilities has displaced over 300,000 people within Idlib governorate since December 2017. An additional 50,000 people have arrived from Eastern Ghouta since mid-March, stretching scarce resources further.</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>In the past two weeks the UN Security Council has held four sessions focused on Syria, where the UK has joined with other countries in calling on the Syrian regime and its backers, Russia and Iran, to uphold the de-escalation arrangements they have previously agreed in Idlib, and to respect international humanitarian law. We have expressed our support for the UN’s contingency planning, including ensuring it is fully funded: the UK has committed £42 million in new funding, and is urgently considering how further funding could be mobilised. We have also made clear that we will respond swiftly and appropriately if the Asad regime repeats its appalling use of chemical weapons.</p><p> </p><p>In January, we supported and lobbied for UNSCR 2393, which provides for humanitarian aid to be delivered cross-border into Syria. This has enabled our partners to provide approximately 572,000 people with access to clean drinking water, immunise 95,000 children under five, provide 500,000 medical consultations, provide safe spaces for over 29,000 women and girls, distribute over 23,000 food rations and support over 2,300 health facilities across Idlib governorate in 2018 so far. The UK also joined our close partners in mobilising the Security Council to demand a ceasefire across the whole of Syria and the immediate delivery of emergency aid to all those in need through UN Security Council Resolution 2401, which was unanimously adopted on 24 February.</p><p> </p><p>The UK continues to play an active role in the International Syria Support Group, where we routinely push issues of protection and access. Together with other countries, the UK has strongly advocated to focus targeting aid on those most in need, which led to a review of the prioritisation of the UN response plan for Syria. As a result, the $1.8 billion plan is now more focused on immediate humanitarian needs and the most vulnerable, including within Idilib.</p>
