Syria has been engaged in civil war for the last six years, with different groups trying to seize control of the country.
The fighting is between:
*Soldiers who support the Syrian president
Bashar al-Assad,
*fighters known as rebels, who don't want
Assad to be in power anymore, and
*the group that call themselves the Islamic
State.
It doesn't look like the fighting is likely to end any time soon.
There is a stalemate between the two sides. This means that the government forces and the rebel groups are unable to defeat each other or agree on the future.
Lots of countries are trying to continue to supply aid, such as food and emergency supplies.
The rest of the world will continue to try to work out if there is a way to help Syria achieve peace. But for the time being, the conflict continues
