Water shortages worsen as funding dries up for northwest Syria displaced
SARMADA, Syria: Hussein Al-Naasan struggles to provide water for his family in the scorching summer, as aid funds have dried up and conditions deteriorated in impoverished displacement camps in Syria’s rebel-held northwest. “Water is life, it is everything... and now we are being deprived of water,” Naasan told AFP from a camp near Sarmada, close to the Turkish border. “It’s like they are trying to kill us slowly,” said the 30-year-old father of two, who has been displaced for more than a decade.
