answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/06/2020 answer text <p>The  UK, along with France and Germany (the E3), have expressed their full solidarity with all impacted by  COVID-19  in Iran. We are working with the international community to ensure that Iran receives the humanitarian support it needs: the E3 have provided a EUR 5 million package of financial and material assistance to Iran via the World Health Organisation and UN bodies to help with the response. We also continue to engage the US on a range of policy matters relating to Iran, including how the international community can best support the Iranian Government's response to the COVID-19 crisis in Iran. We welcome the new US Treasury factsheet issued on 16th April summarising the humanitarian exemptions to sanctions against Iran and offering additional guidance for individuals and governments.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 02/06/2020 11:14:05 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government what evidence they have received, if any, of civilian casualties in Syria caused by Russian military action by air, by land, or by cluster weapons; and what assessment they have made of the means available to them to prevent Russian military action from increasing casualties in Syria.
tabling member printed	Lord Hylton
uin	HL4591
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/12/2015 answer text It is difficult to ascertain with complete certainty the numbers of civilian casualties as a direct result of Russian attacks, though there are numerous, credible open source reports of civilian casualties as a result of Russian air strikes. Although Russian claims to be targeting Daesh, 75 per cent of their strikes have been against other targets. We continue to urge Russia to end strikes against the moderate opposition and, instead, to use its political leverage over the Assad regime to stop the regime’s indiscriminate bombing against civilians. In February 2014 we co-sponsored UN Security Council Resolution 2139 calling for the protection of civilians and an end to indiscriminate attacks, including the use of barrel bombs and obstructing the flow of humanitarian aid. answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 30/12/2015 14:16:55 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
