Syrian military helicopters have dropped barrel bombs on the rebel-held city of Daraya. The widespread destruction wrought by the improvised armaments was captured on unverified amateur video by Daraya activists. <br /><br />While the talking has been going on in Geneva, one NGO claims that 1,900 Syrians have died across the country in the fighting between the Syrian army and rebels.<br /><br />Elsewhere and in Yarmouk Palestinian camp in a suburb of Damascus, refugees were shot at only hours after a United Nations agency finally delivered some food aid.<br /><br />One thousand food parcels were the first to reach the camp since January 21 when a mere 138 parcels were sent in.<br /><br />Each one can feed a family of eight for up to 10 days. The camp houses 18,000 Palestinians who have been cut off by a Syrian army siege for months. <br /><br />It is in Yarmouk, Homs and in other besieged ares that success or failure of the Geneva talks will be keenly felt.
