Syrian Government to Allow International Food Aid

The World Food Program currently provides food aid to 1.5 million needy people inside Syria. WFP Executive Director Ertharin Cousin says the agency has not been able to expand its operation because only the Syrian Arab Red Crescent has been authorized to distribute food.
