The UN Security Council on 09 January unanimously adopted a resolution authorizing the renewal for another six months of the cross-border mechanism for aid deliveries from Turkey to the rebel-held northwest Syrian provinces, a day before it was set to expire. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres described in a statement the humanitarian operation as an 'indispensable lifeline' for some 4.1 million people in the region, adding that the six-month extension 'comes as humanitarian needs have reached the highest levels since the start of the conflict in 2011, with people in Syria grappling with a harsh winter and a cholera outbreak'.
