The largest medical evacuation in Syria took place after an agreement between Damascus and the rebellion allowed the Red Crescent to evacuate several patients. The Syrian Medical Association (SAMS) said in a statement that four out of four East Ghouta migrants, about 400,000, were surrounded by President Bashar al-Assad's forces. In 2013, the immigrants were taken to a hospital in Damascus. It is a densely populated city and houses important cities near Damascus. The military has routinely defeated a troop withdrawal in western Syria last year with the help of the Russian Air Force and Iranian militias are backed. The Jaish al-Islam insurgency in Eastern Ghouta said that 29 detainees were released. On the other hand, the government would allow 29 exoduses. However, one of the six-month girl list died before she could evacuate, said Mohamad Katoub, SAMS Support Manager on Twitter.
The International Commission of the Red Cross (ICRC) said it had facilitated an agreement that took place two months after the UN asked the Assad government to evacuate 29 emergency patients. First Francesco Rocca, president of the International Federation of the Red Cross, wrote in a tweet. "We are happy that our negotiations achieve this important objective as a sign of hope for the Syrian future. The Deputy Minister of Commerce, Ahmed Mounir, said that such an agreement had taken place with many people who would go east of Ghouta in exchange for the release of what he called the kidnappers. He said on television. The political office of Jaime al-Islam in Ghouta says that the Syrian Red Crescent (SARC) is the mediator between Damascus and the rebels. "We work to make them through the Red Crescent, and we are carrying out almost 500 evacuations," said Yasser Delvan. There are no indications that there will be more evacuation.
The United Nations appealed to the government to evacuate approximately 500 patients, including children with cancer, and said there was no reason not to allow immigrants to continue. Although Eastern Ghouta is officially "the jurisdiction" under the ceasefire agreement of Russia, which constantly fights. The United Nations says the population, including 130,000 children, is experiencing the worst malnutrition in nearly seven years. Residents and aid workers say the government has issued a series of measures in recent months in what they call deliberate use as a weapon of war, accusations that the government has denied.
