consent.
The approval will enable the agencies to "immediately" deliver aid to 1.3 million Syrians, said Mark Lyall Grant, the U.K. ambassador to the UN, according to a transcript of his remarks to the council.
The 15-member Security Council was united in support of the proposal by Australia, Jordan and Luxembourg, to give UN humanitarian agencies and their partners the legal authority to use four crossings on Syria's borders with Iraq, Turkey and Jordan without the Syrian government's authorization.
The resolution also orders UN monitors to be deployed to the crossings to inspect the aid consignments and confirm their "humanitarian nature."
