Children represent nearly a third of all ERW casualties. The Syrian health infrastructure continues to suffer, with only 59% of hospitals and 46% of primary healthcare centers fully operational. Medicine shortages and rising treatment costs have placed critical care out of reach for many Syrians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite limited funding and damaged infrastructure, cross-border aid from T\u00fcrkiye has increased sixfold compared to last year, with 1,185 aid trucks delivering assistance monthly to 2.5 million people. However, the humanitarian response plan requires $2 billion to support 8 million people through June 2025 but has received less than $236 million to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dujarric called for expanded risk education, explosive clearance, and survivor support to address the crisis and prevent further casualties and disease outbreaks amid overcrowded shelters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United Nations has issued a stark warning about Syria\u2019s deteriorating health system, with nearly 16 million people urgently requiring humanitarian health assistance, Jurist News reported.
