OCHA staff from the Syrian Cross-Border Humanitarian Fund conducted a routine monitoring mission through the al-Ra’ee crossing. The World Health Organization, for its part, entered via Bab al-Salam to conduct a routine assessment.

Additional staff missions and truck movements are planned through Bab al-Salam and al-Ra'ee crossings in the coming days.
