UN authorization allows the international body to distribute aid to displaced Syrians without needing permission from Damascus. Bab al-Hawa, on the other hand, allows for aid to be funneled to nearly four million people in the insurgent Idlib region, which the Syrian regime does not control.Western member states reject Russia's arguments that authorization for cross-border aid violates Syrian sovereignty.
