Russian reconciliation center delivers over 13 tonnes of food to refugees near Aleppo

Thousands of refugees, who were forced to leave their homes, stay at the camp in the outskirts of Manbij

ALEPPO, March 28. /TASS/. Staff members of the Russian Center for Reconciliation of the Warring Parties in Syria handed out 13.5 tonnes of food at a refugees’ camp near Manbij, the center’s head in the Aleppo province Sergey Rachuk said.

"We try to show by any means, gently and unobtrusively, but at the same time confidently that Russia is here not to conquer anything and oppress, but to provide assistance to Syria and ordinary people. Everyone who is in need here should receive this aid," Rachuk said.

Thousands of refugees, who were forced to leave their homes, stay at the camp in the outskirts of Manbij. The Russian military delivered foodstuffs for them, including sugar, canned meat and tea.

The number of settlements joining the ceasefire in Syria grows every day, the center said.
