The Russian Foreign Ministry calls on all sides to make a joint effort to provide localities under terrorist groups’ siege with humanitarian assistance, the ministry’s press service said in a statement Friday.

MOSCOW — Moscow is particularly concerned with humanitarian situation in the Syrian western towns of Madaya, Foah and Kafraya, the press service added.

 “It is required now that all sides, as well as states that have influence on them, make every effort to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid, particularly to settlements besieged and blocked by militants of terrorist groups Nusra Front, Ahrar al-Sham and Jaysh al-Islam,” the Russian Sputnik reported.
