Video shows devastation in Baba Amr, Syria

A Red Cross convoy is on its way to the Baba Amr area of the Syrian city of Homs to deliver food and medical supplies after a month-long siege.

Footage broadcast on state TV on Friday showed scenes of destruction in the Baba Amr district of Homs.

Snow has also been falling in Syria since Thursday and state TV showed pictures of the scene in Homs.

Footage from activists said to have been filmed on Thursday also appeared to show residents in the streets of Bab Sbaa in Homs.
