Activists: Syria will let food into rebel town

None

Syrian government officials promised to allow food into a rebel-held town near Damascus that has been under military blockade for months, on condition that residents raise the Syrian national flag and rebels hand over heavy weapons, said activists on Thursday.

 

Residents of Moadamiyeh, west of the capital, and rebels in the town agreed to the terms, and on Thursday residents were flying the national flag of red, black and white strips, with two green stars, over buildings, said the spokesman of the local town council. (AP)
