A food aid convoy entered the Syrian town of Daraya early Friday, the Syrian Red Crescent announced.

"Nine lorries are currently being unloaded in Daraya. They are carrying food aid, including dry goods and flour, non-food aid as well as medical aid," Tamam Mehrez, operations director of the Syrian Red Crescent said.

This is the first aid convoy that enters Daraya since the besiege, which was imposed in 2012. It was the fruit of collaboration between the Red Crescent and the UN.
