Aid has been delivered to four besieged towns in Syria for the first time in almost six months, the International Committee of the Red Cross says, the BBC reports.
Seventy-one lorries reached rebel-held Madaya and Zabadani, near Damascus, and government-controlled Foah and Kefraya, in Idlib province, on Sunday.
They brought food, medical supplies and hygiene kits for 60,000 people.
Last week, the UN suspended aid deliveries across Syria for 48 hours after a deadly attack on a convoy.
