Britons to deliver aid to Syria, undeterred by travel warning

British citizens have been warned by the government not to travel to Syria for any reason.

Syria has been in a state of civil war for more than three years and has attracted hundreds of British fighters.

Officials say they fear even those going to deliver aid may be radicalised by what they see - but some are ignoring the warnings and going anyway.

Catrin Nye reports.
