After a vast period of time, a U.N. humanitarian aid convoy has got in to the East Ghouta region of rural Damascus.
According to a UN source, at least 48 humanitarian aid trucks containing various of foods and medicine entered the East Ghouta, Monday, to distribute these supplies for the towns and suburbs of ‘Ayn Tarma, Jisreen, Beit Sawa, Al-Ashari, and Al-Mahamdiyah.
The aforementioned sites in the East Ghouta are mostly under control of Faylaq Al-Rahman, which is a faction of the Free Syrian Army that only operates in this region.
Russia recently renewed their de-escalation agreement with Faylaq Al-Rahman, prompting the former to help get aid trucks to this besieged area.
