North and East Syria — In an escalating humanitarian response to the dire crisis gripping Syria’s southern Suwayda province, the Syriac Cross for Relief and Development and the Shlomo Organization have launched a wide-scale civil solidarity campaign under the slogan “We Are All with Suwayda– Open the Corridors — Stop the Attacks.” The campaign aims to raise funds and provide support to residents enduring a suffocating siege and near-total collapse of essential services.
The initiative comes amid deteriorating humanitarian conditions affecting more than 300,000 people in Suwayda, who are suffering from acute shortages of food and water, a lack of fuel and medicine, and power outages, alongside reports of systematic security restrictions and severe limitations on movement–worsening what is now considered one of the harshest humanitarian disasters in Syria in recent years.
In a joint statement, the two Syriac organizations reaffirmed their unwavering commitment to the principles of human dignity and the right of all people to live in safety and with decency. “Our brothers and sisters in Suwayda are facing a tragic reality, as their lives are endangered by a policy of starvation and intimidation, amid a troubling silence from the international community,” the statement read.
