UN: Over 176,000 displaced by Turkish offensive in northeast Syria
|
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] The UN says that nearly two weeks after The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
 ...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire...
launched its offensive in northeast Syria more than 176,000 people have been displaced, including nearly 80,000 children, and "critical infrastructure has been damaged."
UN front man Stephane Dujarric said Tuesday that power lines have been damaged, reportedly affecting at least four medical facilities.
He said the Alouk water station, which serves over 400,000 people in al-Hassakah city and surrounding displacement camps, has received temporary repairs and generators are now being used to supply safe water for the population in the area.
Dujarric told news hounds at the UN headquarters in New York that Imran Riza, the UN humanitarian coordinator in Syria, said after visiting the northeast that he was grateful UN appeals for humanitarian access were successful and water was restored, "averting more serious humanitarian problems."
