With the worsening unrest in Syria the UN has estimated that 1.5 million people are in now in need of humanitarian assistance. As the situation deteriorates, the UN humanitarian agencies, the Syrian Arab Red Crescent and ICRC, and a limited number of NGOs are increasing their assistance programmes and presence throughout Syria. WFP alone has expanded its EMOP 200339 to assist 500,000 people in May and June, and plans to expand to 850,000 beneficiaries from July- December, 2012.
