\"slow humanitarian response\" to opposition-held northwest Syria after the earthquake highlights the \"inadequacy\" of the UN\u2019s attempts to move aid across the Turkish border, adding that delays are \"deadly\". \n\nThe Syrian government's authorisation of two more border crossings into northwestern Syria for just three months \"is too little, too late\", said HRW's deputy Middle East director Adam Coogle. \n\nHe added that the Syrian government's \"record of obstructing aid, combined with the failure of the cross-border mechanism authorised by the Security Council to meet the urgent needs of Syrians in the besieged northwest, demonstrates that alternative aid systems are necessary.\u201d \n\nIn the days after the earthquakes, UN Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres and UN humanitarian chief Martin Griffiths called for more cross-border access to people in need. \n\nGriffiths acknowledged on 12 February, six days after the first earthquake, that the UN had \"failed\" the people of northwest Syria. \n\nTuesday, a UN convoy entered the opposition-held areas of northwestern Syria through the Bab al-Salam border crossing, a crossing point on the Turkish border that the organisation has been able to use again after several years without access. \n\nOpposition areas in the northern Syrian provinces of Idlib and Aleppo, the hardest hit by the earthquakes, did not receive their first UN humanitarian aid until four days after the disaster, prompting a barrage of criticism of the organisation. \n\nEven before the earthquakes, Syrians were facing one of the worst economic and humanitarian crises since the civil war began in 2011, struggling with a fuel crisis, a cholera outbreak and rising food insecurity. \n\nMost of northwestern Syria's population of about four million was dependent on humanitarian aid before the natural disaster. \n\n\"Civilians in these areas are effectively trapped, lack the resources to relocate, are unable to cross into Turkey and fear persecution if they attempt to relocate to government-controlled areas,\" HRW said.","htmlText":"<p>Human Rights Watch (HWR) said on Wednesday that the \"slow humanitarian response\" to

Millions of internally-displaced people have been sheltering there and getting enough help to them was already a challenge.\u00a0 \n\n\"You'd have done well to pick a worse place to be affected by an earthquake of this magnitude\", says Mark Kaye, from the International Rescue Committee . \n\n\"Some of the people that we work with in northwestern Syria have been displaced more than 20 times over the last 12 years.\" \n\nHuge cholera outbreak feared \n\nMillions in northern Syria live in camps for internally-displaced persons. Tents have generally not been affected, but other key facilities have fared poorly. \n\n\"The camps are terrible. It's rained, so there's a lot of mud\", says World Vision Syria Response Director, Johan Mooij, who has workers on the ground with internally displaced people. \n\n\"One of our fears now is that if there's no good drinking water, cholera will explode. Basic services are down. It is a terrible situation indeed.\" \n\nWhile some aid agencies are already based in the region, many of their workers, like the rest of the local population, have been left in dire straits. And that is hindering the response on the ground.\u00a0 \n\n\"Many of our staff simply don't have anywhere to sleep\", Kaye says. \"[They] are spending the night sleeping on the floors of schools, in mosques, in sports halls or even in their cars. Even having our own office at the moment is proving difficult because some of our field offices have been quite severely damaged by the earthquake itself\". \n\nDifficulties crossing into Syria \n\nIn southern Turkey, rescuers and aid efforts have been hampered by the destruction. Roads have been destroyed, along with other crucial infrastructure. In northern Syria, agencies face an additional problem, however -- the border itself. \n\nAs a result of the ongoing civil war, Syria's northwest is divided between government, rebel and Turkish control. Before the earthquakes, most humanitarian aid entered the area from Turkey. However, restrictions on what can -- and cannot -- come in, as well as a lack of overall capacity, mean not enough material is getting through. \n\n\"The entire area is largely reliant on one border crossing point from Turkey for UN aid assistance that wasn't already sufficient\", says Mark Kaye. \n\nWhile some aid has been requested by and sent to the Syrian government, it remains a small portion of what is currently needed. And there is no communication between the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and the rebel factions. What's more, diplomatic relations between most Western governments and Damascus, are non existent. \n\nAs Xavier Castellanos from the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies notes, \"limitations that we can face around sanctions do affect the speed [at which] we can intervene.\" \n\n\"[They] affect the capacity to allocate financial resources, to enter and to operate... it will require more flexibility.\" \n\n\"Most of the resources in funding, search and rescue teams, at the moment seems to be heading towards southern Turkey where there are significant needs, but we need to make sure that Syria isn't forgotten.

Another 1,300 were severely damaged. \n\nAleppo was one of the worst-hit places in Syria. And the earthquake piled on many human-made disasters. \n\n\"To ensure we do not die, where else can people go? They have no options. They have no homes, no tents. Where can they go? They can only rest here until the situation gets better,\u201d Youssef Al-Hasawy, one of the city\u2019s residents, said. \n\nSome residents are still afraid to return to their homes that survived the earthquake, choosing to shelter in surviving schools instead. A Maronite Christian monastery took in more than 800 people. \n\nBashar al-Assad's government demands that aid flows through it \n\nAmid an outpouring of sympathy for the Syrians hit by the earthquake, Damascus has seized the moment to reiterate its long-standing demand for aid to be coordinated with President Bashar al-Assad\u2019s government. \n\nThe West has shunned Assad since Syria's civil war began in 2011. \n\nWestern powers have shown no sign they are ready to meet that demand or re-engage with Assad, but difficulties facing cross-border aid flows have strengthened his hand. \n\nAssad has blamed European and US sanctions for the lack of aid. \n\nAround 4 million people critically rely on aid in the region.

earthquake hit before dawn near the Turkish city of Gaziantep, about 40 kilometres from the Syrian border. \n\nThe quake killed at least 239 people and left at least another 648 injured in government-controlled parts of Syria, including the cities of Aleppo, Hama, Latakia and Tartus, state television said. \n\nIn rebel-held parts of the northwest of the country, at least 147 people were killed and more than 340 were injured, according to rescue workers. \n\n\"The toll may increase as many families are still trapped,\" the White Helmets rescue group, which operates in rebel-controlled areas of the war-torn country, stated on Twitter. \n\n\"Our teams are on the ground searching for survivors & removing the dead from the rubble,\" it added. \n\nRescuers rushed to probe for survivors under the rubble of collapsed buildings in the pouring winter rain. \n\nIn Aleppo alone, 24 people died and 100 were injured when 20 buildings collapsed in the province, the official news agency SANA

boat sank off the coast of Syria, officials say. \n\nMore than 120 people -- mainly Lebanese and Syrians -- are believed to have been on board the small boat that capsized on its way to Europe. \n\nLebanese Transport Minister Ali Hamie said on Friday that 19 people had been rescued near the\u00a0Syrian port city of Tartus. \n\nThursday's tragedy is likely to be the highest-ever death toll for a migrant crossing from Lebanon. \n\n\"I am discussing with the Syrian transport minister a mechanism to recover the bodies in Syria,\" Hamie told AFP, adding that rescue efforts were still underway. \n\nIn April, dozens of people were killed when an overcrowded migrant vessel sank off the coast of Tripoli, prompting widespread anger. \n\nLebanon has seen a spike in migration amid a deepening economic crisis. \n\nThe number of people who tried to leave Lebanon by sea nearly doubled in 2021 compared to the previous year, according to the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR). \n\nRare migrant sea rescue off the coast of Bulgaria \n\nBulgaria's interior ministry said on Thursday that 38 migrants, including eight children, were rescued in the Black Sea by the country's coastguard. \n\nThe group -- from Syria and Afghanistan -- were spotted in trouble during a storm on their way to Romania, officials said. \n\nIt is the first time since 2014 that migrants have been found in Bulgarian territorial waters, according to Anton Mirkov, director of the regional border police. \n\n\"The boat was seven to eight metres long and ran out of fuel,\" he told reporters. \n\nBulgaria recently sent around 300 soldiers to its 259-kilometre border with Turkey to reinforce a barbed wire fence. \n\nPressure on migration in the EU country has risen after two police officers were killed by a bus carrying migrants last month . \n\nGreek coastguard searches for missing migrants \n\nThe Greek coast guard has also stated that it is searching for six migrants reported missing off the southeastern Aegean island of Leros.\u00a0 \n\nOfficials say that 49 migrants were found \"in good health\" on an island beach but that\u00a0\"their inflatable boat was found destroyed at sea\". \n\nSurvivors said that\u00a0\"a total of 55 people were on board the boat,\" the Greek coastguard added in a statement . \n\nThe majority of the migrants are from Somalia, Sierra Leone and Uganda. \n\nAnother rescue operation was also underway near the southwestern town of Pylos on the Greek mainland. \n\nThe coastguard says that 85 migrants \"in difficulty\" were rescued by a cargo ship and oil tanker in the area.\u00a0The survivors were transferred to the nearby port of Kalamata.","htmlText":"<p>At least 77 migrants have drowned and several more are missing after their boat sank off the coast of Syria,
