Weeks after the devastating earthquake in Turkey and Syria, India remains one of the few countries to give aid to both Turkey and Syria. Millions of Syrians, who have already suffered greatly because of the country’s ongoing civil war, now face a new crisis with little aid from major donors like the West.
