Doha, March 15 (QNA) - The Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS) has launched a humanitarian project in Syria, as part of its ongoing efforts to alleviate the suffering of those affected by the continuing humanitarian crisis.
The project aims to empower the most vulnerable Syrian families in villages and towns of Idlib and Aleppo governorates and their surrounding rural areas by improving their access to food amidst worsening food insecurity.
Implemented in cooperation with the Syrian Arab Red Crescent (SARC), the project targets the provision of essential food assistance to the most needy families. It will benefit 6,125 families, comprising a total of 30,625 individuals including displaced families, low-income families, older persons, and persons with disabilities.

The Qatar Red Crescent reaffirmed its commitment to continuing its humanitarian efforts in Syria, working alongside its local and international partners to make a difference in the lives of the affected populations and enhance the resilience of the communities most in need. (QNA)
