For our part, in addition to our readiness to provide necessary healthcare during their displacement and until they reach safe areas under the Autonomous Administration, we are committed to offering assistance to the best of our abilities. We urge our people at home and in the diaspora to extend a helping hand as much as possible, as solidarity in times of crisis reflects our humanity and strengthens the values of cooperation and brotherhood among us.
We hope for peace for all our people throughout Syria.
