The Kremlin said on Monday that it was in contact with Syrian authorities over providing relief to areas affected by last week's earthquake and that it was finding ways to continue supplying humanitarian aid there.

At least 34,000 people have died since a major earthquake struck Türkiye and Syria last week.
