The aid is coordinated by two United Nations aid agencies, but according to Mayor Ali, they are not working transparently with local authorities. “I don’t know who they are in touch with, but it’s not with us. I don’t know what they’re going to do either.”
This leads to much disappointment among the residents of Hawija. “Our people have suffered a lot, both physically and psychologically. In addition, they have lost their possessions and it is difficult for them to make ends meet.” The mayor hopes to talk to politicians and officials about the aid to Hawija in the coming days.
Outgoing Defense Minister Kamp, the successor of the resigned Minister Bijleveld, wrote last month: to the House of Representatives that the repair operation has only just begun. In recent months, preparations have mainly been made, such as finding a contractor and assessing submitted offers.
