The Türkiye and Syria earthquake's rescue phase is 'coming to a close,' with urgency now switching to providing shelter, food, schooling and psychosocial care, United Nations aid chief Martin Griffiths said during a visit to Aleppo in northern Syria on Monday.

The UN official also mentioned that the UN would have aid moving from government-held regions in Syria to the rebel-held northwest of the country.
