Ministry of Health decree (2 January 2018)/REF: 4/176: It is not allowed to import or purchase the medicines which are manufactured in the Syrian local market. The issue of the MoH ban on importation of medicines and medical consumable locally manufactured has been ongoing throughout 2017. There were a series of different bilateral and joint meetings among the involved stakeholders. WHO international consultant has extensively worked to find alternatives and workable solution and a separate NV from RC/HC office was submitted to the MoFA. A way forward is at the levels of heads of UN agencies and ICRC (as being affected by this decision) to agree on the best way to proceed. This should be escalated to the level of UNCT and HCT while exploring other options to find a solution.

No convoy has been delivered since the last update to the HCT on 20 December 2017. The last UN inter-agency convoy was to Al-Houla and Harbanisfeh on 14 December 2017.

The north-east Syria humanitarian situation continues to require emergency and more medium-long-term support. Continuous displacement from the conflict in Deir-ez-Zoir.

A need for short-, medium-term solutions for blood support for each of three governorates in NES (standard response should include 1) assistance with building rehabilitation; 2) provision of equipment and supplies; 3) staff capacity building). Treatment of patients with burn injuries remain a significant gap in NES, especially factored if these patients are refugees or without any documents. The referral outside of NES presents serious security concerns

There is need to provide more technical support to NES present partners on infectious disease control, notification procedures and referral pathway for patients.

There is a need for different types of assessment activities throughout Deir-ez-Zoir governorate. Access challenges in Deir-ez-Zor continue to limit understanding of humanitarian needs and population movements.

Continuous requests are being received. Health sector is enhancing data collection, information gathering throughout the governorate.

Need for hubs (Turkey and Jordan) to coordinate and be familiar of the details of cross-border convoys delivering health supplies.

Further clarity is required from OCHA on the notification mechanism by the UN to the Syrian authorities on all XB convoys as according to the UN Security Council Resolution and the use of XB crossing points from Iraq. Cautious approach about the start of cross-border operations from Yarobieh

Receiving timely approvals from the GoS to shit medical supplies to NES: There is no yet road access to Qamishli but approvals were received by WHO for airlifts.

The temporary ban of operations of national NGOs in NES decreased provision of health services in Hassakeh city, its rural area and camps while Ar Raqqa based services were continued.

DoH Al Hassakeh is prevented by the Self-Administration for technical supervisory visits to camps in Al Hassakeh

No medical evacuations have taken place since the small-scale evacuations on 26/28 December. The caseload of people requiring medical evacuation continues to grow.

Access to Afrin areas from Aleppo hub to roll out NGO supported activities (mobile medical teams, PHCs, referral system), NCD treatment, including dialysis, for patients in Afrin, future of mental health patients in Azzaz mental health hospital, medical evacuation.

To strengthen health sector response to the needs of 2.65 million people residing in north-western Syria. 1.16 million are IDPs and 1.73 million people are classified as people in need.

Ongoing violence in northern Hama: increased incidents of violence against health care.

Obstacles faced by INGOs to receive approvals to roll out response in parts of the country requiring immediate emergency response.

Building up advocacy efforts to highlight on the increased humanitarian needs and access requirement to the besieged and hard-to-reach areas.

Reduced access to southern governorates (Dara’a and Quneitra) due to increased violence/political influence.

Deterioration of health humanitarian situation (the Berm/Rukban area).
