In northern Syria, displaced blame Russia for end to vital aid

A decision made thousands of miles away is expected to have a direct impact on the residents of northwest Syria, as the United Nations Security Council failed to pass a resolution that would have extended vital cross-border aid to the opposition-held territory.
Russia exercised its veto power at the body on Tuesday to block the renewal of a major UN operation that delivers aid to northwest Syria from Turkey for a period of nine months.
The Bab al-Hawa crossing with Turkey has been a lifeline for many displaced Syrians.
