Thanks for signing the petition to lift the siege on Madaya.

Next, let’s flood Ban Ki-moon with personalised messages urging him to quickly intervene. Below are some talking points to help you.
  • We cannot stand by and watch while 40,000 Syrians starve to death. We call on you to bring all sides together to urgently lift the siege on Madaya and other besieged towns in Syria.
  • Aid deliveries are simply not sufficient, and this intentional starvation is a breach of international law. To save civilians the UN must work with warring parties to lift the sieges immediately so families and aid can pass safely and freely.
  • Turkey, Iran, and their allies can make it happen, but only your immense diplomatic influence can bring them together urgently, and ensure a solution is reached quickly.
