***Headlines***
6 Barrel bombs hit the city; heavy-artillery shelling causes injuries; 3 deaths; several regime locations targeted with mortar shells; 14 months of siege cause an absence of life necessities
*** Recent developments on the ground***
Six barrel bombs have been dropped on the city of Daraya today. The bombing targeted city centre and the southern area and caused massive destruction and heavy clouds of smoke while heavy-artillery shelling originating from Fourth Division Mountains hit the southern area of the city.
Shuhada Al Islam Brigade retaliated by attacking several regime points using mortar shells achieving direct hits.
3 heroes died today as an SSM hit the city late last night.

***Humanitarian and living conditions***
The besieged people of Daraya have been suffering for over a year amidst a total lack of humanitarian, medical and food supplies. Over 6,000 civilians including 600 children and 50 new born babies are living inside the siege.
The people have been surviving on whatever vegetables or herbs they can get. Unfortunately, large proportions of crops have been damaged by the current wave of frost. As a result, the siege is becoming ever more life-threatening due to hunger, cold and daily shelling including explosive barrels.
