1-29-2014 Yarmouk tragedies go on despite aid delivery : Rami Khouri : The Daily Star


Palestinian refugees still under siege in Yarmouk, Syria.

Granting relief groups access to an estimated 250,000 people trapped by fighting across Syria was one of the goals of the peace talks held last week in Switzerland, which adjourned Friday with no substantial results.

Despite lengthy discussions, the sides could not agree on passage for an aid convoy to reach 2,500 people trapped in the old city of Homs, Syria’s third-largest city, with no access to food or medicine.
