Daraa, in southern Syria, is under attack by regime forces.
There are currently around 55,000 people besieged in Daraa-al-Balad and- according to OCHA- at least 24,000 people have already been displaced, mostly to neighboring areas.
The hospital has been hit, leaving people with chronic illnesses without medical care. The only road into the area is controlled by the regime so it’s been close to impossible to get access to food and medicines. Water, electricity and communications have been cut off. The siege has dramatically increased the price of food and goods and puts in further risk families who already struggled to cope with the economic crisis in Syria.
