A Turkish aid group distributed winter clothing to children in Syria at border camps across from Turkey's Kilis province.
The Istanbul-based Humanitarian Relief Foundation (IHH) handed out 20,000 boots, 22,000 slippers and 22,000 sweaters as part of its global winter aid campaign, A Warm Kindness.
The aid was given to 44,000 Syrian children in Aleppo's al-Bab, Jarablus and Azaz districts.
Speaking to Anadolu Agency, Hasan Aksoy, an IHH coordinator in Syria, told Anadolu Agency that the harsh winter mostly affect children.
"We brought slippers and boots so that the little feet of these children don't get cold. We are also trying to meet the needs of the families affected by the flood," Aksoy said.
"The region is experiencing the harshest winter in years. The living conditions in the camps is becoming very difficult," he added.
Aksoy underlined that his team is working on supplying winter aid packages to families of war victims as fast as they can with the help of donations.
More blankets, winter clothes, stoves, firewood, and food are needed urgently in the area, he stressed.
