ICRC confirms that aid has reached Hama, a town in west central Syria badly affected by the fighting. The organization has not been able to return to Baba Amr in Homs since it evacuated 27 people on 24 February. However, negotiations with the Syrian authorities and the opposition are continuing, to try to reach agreement on a daily halt in the fighting to allow humanitarian assistance to be carried out in safety.
