Damascus, March. 31 (SANA) In cooperation with the United Nations Human Settlements Program (UN-Habitat), Syria’s Ministry of Local Administration and Environment on Monday released a detailed assessment of damage in Aleppo, northwest Syria, aimed at informing recovery and rebuilding strategies.
The ministry said in a statement, that the report was compiled following months of field surveys and technical studies, producing detailed maps of infrastructure damage across Aleppo Governorate.
