Health Supplies: Aid Convoys and Border Zone

health supplies: From the Syrian side of the border zone, Ambassador Nikki Haley gazed up at a Turkish flag plastered onto signs marking the entrance into that nation's territory, according to The Chronicle Herald. Syrian refugees once flooded through the run-down Bab al-Hawa Border Crossing until officials cracked down. That reality is far removed from America's years-old hope for President Bashar Assad to leave power and speedily end the civil war. These days it's only aid convoys that pass back and forth, trying to meet an unrelenting demand for food, health supplies and other basic needs in the Arab country. Underscoring the danger, security officials spirited her away from the border after unmarked vehicles were spotted moving toward the area. Ferried to the border in an armoured motorcade, Haley walked to within just a few feet of entering the Arab land, becoming the highest-ranking U.S. official to come so close to Syrian territory in years.
