WASHINGTON — The United States and Russia will meet in Geneva on Feb. 19 for consultations on how to implement a Syria truce, as UN aid agencies said they were able to deliver 100 trucks of humanitarian aid to five besieged Syrian towns, in what the United States called a “step forward.”
"Today, we reached five besieged towns in urgent need of humanitarian assistance,” UN Syria humanitarian coordinator Yacoub el-Hillo said in a press release Feb. 17. “The convoys contained life-saving aid including food, medical supplies and equipment, vaccines, water and sanitation items for almost 100,000 people in need of aid."
