Since the beginning of 2016, the UN and partners successfully delivered multi-sectoral assistance through inter-agency operations, reaching nearly 561,000 civilians in besieged, hard-to-reach and other priority cross-line locations with dire humanitarian needs. Many of these people were reached more than once. A total of 33 UN inter-agency convoys have been undertaken, reaching nearly 477,000 people. UNRWA has also delivered 21 convoys with multi-sectoral assistance to 19,000 people in YBB*, including thousands of residents in and from Yarmouk. In addition, through eight WFP-led airdrops, 141 metric tons of food supplies have been delivered to besieged parts of eastern Deir-ez Zor city. These materials are sufficient to provide partial food rations for approximately 65,000 people in need.
