The help group says it reached the communities of Khalidiya and Hamidiya in the old city of Homs on Saturday after settlements with the government and rebels. It stated in a statement late Sunday that 34 foreign delegates and Syrian Arab Red Crescent officials had the ability to provide medical help to 100 wounded individuals. The Geneva-based group says it also provided medication, food and hygiene items to "hundreds of civilians (who) have been unable to leave Khalidiya and Hamidiya for at least four months" because of battling. Homs has actually witnessed some of Syria's worst battling because a popular uprising began in the country in March 2011.
