New convoy of food aid enters Syria’s rebel Ghouta: ICRC

BEIRUT – A new convoy carrying desperately needed food aid entered the rebel enclave of Eastern Ghouta near Syria’s capital Thursday, the International Committee of the Red Cross told AFP.

“The convoy entered Ghouta and is going to Douma now,” ICRC’s communication coordinator Pawel Krzysiek said. Douma is the largest rebel-controlled town in Ghouta.
