Italian NGO to deliver food baskets to Syrian families

(ANSA) - Milan, November 5 - Italian NGO Amici dei Bambini (Friends of Children) said on Thursday it will provide food baskets to more than 1,000 families in war-torn Syria every month for the next six months. The baskets with products including flour, bread, rice, tea and sugar should help a total of 6,000 people in Syria who can't feed their families and who have lost their homes.
