Question for Foreign and Commonwealth Office

UIN HL8064, tabled on 21 May 2018

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they have referred the situation of the siege of the Yarmouk camp to the UN Security Council.

Answered on

5 June 2018

We have used our position in the UN Security Council to call upon the regime to cease any indiscriminate attacks, to protect civilians and to allow rapid and unhindered humanitarian access, including to Yarmouk and the surrounding areas. We have done this most recently in the UN Security Council consultations on the humanitarian situation in Syria on 25 April.
