Twenty-one humanitarian and human rights organizations released Thursday a damning report on the U.N. Security Council’s failure to effectively implement resolutions to alleviate humanitarian suffering and aid operation hurdles in Syria.
The report comes as the Syrian crisis enters its fifth year.

Security Council after the body unanimously backed a resolution that demanded all parties cease attacks to protect civilians and civilian facilities, and allow safe, unhindered humanitarian access for U.N. agencies and its implementing partners.
