Residents of the neighborhood who spoke to ANHA’s agency described the policies of the Damascus Government as "starvation policies", and called on the concerned authorities to intervene to "prevent a humanitarian catastrophe."

She also said, "This is a crime. There are dozens of children without bread today, in this holy month."

As for the citizen Khadija Suleiman, she said that the Kurds all over the world are subjected to extermination in all forms. She said that what the people of Sheikh Maqsoud neighborhood are subjected to today is "extermination through starvation and preventing bread from the people."
