Over the past 48 hours, multiple and sustained airstrikes were reported in the southern countryside of Aleppo Governorate and parts of Idlib Governorate, UN Secretary General`s spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said.
According to Dujarric, the UN is also concerned over a recent escalation of airstrikes in Aleppo and Idlib Governorates.
"We call on all parties to the conflict to take all measures to protect civilians, as required under international humanitarian law," he said, stressing that the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs remain deeply concerned about the humanitarian situation in east Ghouta, where almost 400,000 civilians remain inside the besieged area, where they face deteriorating humanitarian, health, living and security conditions.
