A female civilian was also killed by the regime’s systematic shelling against civilian neighbourhoods.
FSA fighters resumed their canvassing and deployment operations in the Old Corniche area, where intermittent clashes and sniper operations continue to take place. Meanwhile, the Corniche and the western front are still being sporadically shelled by tanks and artillery. The civilians remaining inside Daraya are still suffering the results of the tight 11-month-long siege which has caused a sharp decline in food and fuel reserves as a harsh winter beckons.
*** Humanitarian situation***
After 10 months of tight siege on the two neighbouring cities of Daraya and Muaddamiya, the need is ever more urgent for essential supplies like food, medicine and even potable water. All power, communications and internet services have also been cut off.
The displaced people from both cities continue to suffer in the western suburbs of Damascus due to continual shelling, security forces harassment, and arrest campaigns launched by regime forces. Inside Damascus, security forces are cracking down on most displaced people especially those who come from Daraya or Muaddamiya.
