Syria: ICRC steps up aid efforts across Aleppo

Country-wide intensification of hostilities has claimed the lives of thousands and worsened access to water, food, and basic health-care services for tens of thousands of people. Over three million people in Aleppo governorate continue to suffer from the fighting, which has caused severe damage to the water network. Tens of thousands are still being displaced and have only limited access to health care, especially in opposition-held areas.
