MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Russian servicemen have delivered over 2 metric tons of aid to more than 3,000 Syrian residents in the past 24 hours, including presents for children, the Russian center for Syrian reconciliation informs.

"Within [the] last 24 hours, 3,250 citizens have received humanitarian aid," the center said in its daily bulletin posted on the Russian Defense Ministry website on Saturday, specifying that the aid was distributed in the course of 7 humanitarian events – six in Aleppo province and one in the province of Hama.

The total weight of the humanitarian aid was 2.3 tonnes (metric tons).
