Petition The UK should send food relief to Madaya, a town besieged since July 2015

For the past 6 months, the Syrian town of Madaya, near the Lebanese border has been besieged by Hezbollah and hemmed in by landmines. 40,000 residents are starving while the price of produced food has soared. This is terrorism against a civilian population as much as the use of bombs and beheadings
