We must help the starving children and families in Madaya, Syria who have been besieged for months. The Syrian government has prevented the entry of food and aid. And the civilians are prevented from leaving, trapped in a mountainous region, surrounded by land mines and snipers. Doctors without Borders reports that at least 23 have died in December alone, and many more will likely be at risk of death and severe illness as winter sets in.
We the People implore our administration to immediately provide food & access to medical care to the 30,000 civilians who are being starved to death. We also need to ensure that there are safe passages for ongoing humanitarian aid.
