\n\t\t\t\u201cSome 13.1 million people in Syria require humanitarian assistance. Of these, 5.6 million people are in acute need,\u201d said the UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) in a statement on Tuesday, adding that the figure showed a slight drop comparing to 13.5 million people in need last year.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\u201cEntering the seventh year of the crisis, the scale, severity and complexity of needs across Syria remain overwhelming,\u201d the statement further read.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tIn late October, it made a similar announcement, saying conflict and violations of international humanitarian law continued to be the main drivers of humanitarian need, with civilians in many parts of the Middle Eastern country enduring \u201cmassive suffering.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tHowever, Under-Secretary-General for OCHA Mark Lowcock said at the time that some 6.3 million were in \u201cacute need\u201d of aid. The figure shows that the relative drop in violence has also helped the government and the charity groups to deliver aids to some seven hundred thousand people, who were in desperate need of assistance.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tBack in May, the fourth round of the intra-Syrian talks, held in Kazakhstan’s capital, Astana, resulted in an agreement on creating four de-escalation zones across Syria, with Russia, Iran, and Turkey serving as guarantor states. The safe zones cover the Syrian provinces of Idlib and Homs as well as the Eastern Ghouta region near Damascus and the country\u2019s southern border with Jordan. They have sharply reduced fighting in the conflict zones.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThe UN says 40 percent of the needy are children, noting that people in besieged or so-called \u201chard-to-reach\u201d areas are particularly vulnerable.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tAccording to the UN figures, over 330,000 people have lost their lives in Syria since the foreign-back militancy began its reign of terror in 2011. The world body also says that the violence has already displaced over half of Syria\u2019s 18 million-strong population, both internally and abroad, as refugees.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tIn recent months, Syrian government troops, backed by Iranian military advisors and Russian airstrikes, landed hard blows on Takfiri terrorists. Over the weekend, Syrian troops also managed to retake the last urban center from the Daesh Takfiri terrorist group, days after Iraqi forces also declared that they had recapture Daesh\u2019s last stronghold in the Arab country.<\/p>\n
