Aid agencies said on Thursday they were struggling to meet the needs of up to 200,000 civilians who fled fighting in northeast Syria and reported water shortages in the Syrian city of Hasaka. A week-old Turkish military offensive prompted Mercy Corps and Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders) to suspend most activities and pull out foreign staff.
