UN aid convoys

• COVID-19: coronavirus experts to meet at WHO and discuss China infections
• UN humanitarians urge extension of Syria cross-border aid access

More “security guarantees” are needed from all sides in the Syrian conflict, before UN aid convoys can deliver vital aid to stranded civilians, despite a major decrease in fighting since Saturday, due to the so-called “cessation in hostilities” agreement.

That’s according to a spokesperson for the World Health Organization (WHO), speaking from the Syrian capital Damascus, on Monday.
