The U.N. refugee agency this week completed its first delivery of winter emergency relief to the Azzas area of northern Syria where thousands of internally displaced people are living in makeshift camps. Agency spokesman Adrian Edwards said Friday in Geneva that the agency was able to deliver 15,000 blankets and 3,000 tents to a civilian airport near Latakia on the Syrian coast. From there, it was transported by road in an eight-truck convoy to an area between Aleppo and the Syrian-Turkish border.
