The UN food agency said Tuesday it had resumed assistance to hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees in Jordan, a month after suspending aid over a lack of funds. "We stopped assistance in September because we did not have the money," said Jonathan Campbell, the World Food Programme's emergency coordinator for Syrian refugees in Jordan.
"The good news now is that we have been able to improve what we were doing," he told a news conference. "We are currently feeding this month 212,000 people in the extremely vulnerable category, and 226,000 vulnerable people but not as vulnerable as the first group," he said.
