Stephen
O'Brien, the United Nations under-secretary for Humanitarian Affairs,
talks to Al Jazeera from New York, discussing the efforts to deliver aid
to besieged areas in Syria.
O'Brien says the UN will make a formal
request to Syria's government, asking for permission to drop aid to
besieged cities and villages.
He also said that out of 34 requests
for June to deliver aid to besieged and hard-to-reach areas by land
convoys, the Syrian government had turned down five.
