Wie es nicht anders zu erwarten war:

The World Health Organisation accused the Syrian government of confiscating supplies from a humanitarian convey headed for the besieged enclave of eastern Ghouta, as Fresh air raids killed 14 in the region overnight.

A WHO official told Reuters on Monday that Syrian government officials removed trauma kits and surgical supplies from trucks that are part of an inter-agency convoy eastern Ghouta.

"All trauma (kits), surgical, dialysis sessions and insulin were rejected by security," the official said by email, adding that some 70 percent of the supplies loaded on its trucks leaving its warehouses had been removed during the inspection.

The United Nations said on Sunday that it had received approval for the convoy to the government-besieged area of 400,000 near Damascus, which only one small convoy reached in mid-February.
