Thaer Al-Haji's question gains special importance as he hails from rural Latakia and knows the region's suffering firsthand through his extensive network

Thaer Abdul Aziz Al-Haji, founder of London-based Levant newspaper and native of Salma villages in rural Latakia, raised fundamental questions about the continued deprivation of the Syrian coastal region from Arab and international aid.
Al-Haji, known for his precise monitoring of Syrian affairs, revealed through his Twitter account that the cities of Latakia, Jableh, Baniyas, and Tartous remain deprived of aid to this day, questioning who is responsible for distribution and the reasons behind this deprivation.
Observers noted that Al-Haji's background as a son of the region and founder of a prestigious media platform gives his questions special importance, especially given his direct knowledge of coastal residents' suffering.
Humanitarian affairs experts confirmed that highlighting this issue indicates the gravity of the situation and the need for an urgent solution to ensure aid reaches its beneficiaries.
Observers emphasized that Al-Haji's deep knowledge of the coastal region, especially rural Latakia, makes his questions a warning bell that requires quick action from authorities concerned with aid distribution.
Relief work specialists explained that the aid distribution issue needs a transparent and fair mechanism to ensure it reaches all needy areas without exception or discrimination.
Activists from the coastal region indicated that Al-Haji's tweet reflects the extent of suffering experienced by residents, demanding an urgent investigation into the reasons for depriving these areas of humanitarian aid.
