Inside Syria - Homs ceasefire: A turning point?

Homs - a major city in Syria - was once a bustling center of economic activity but now it in ruins. It has been the scene of intense fighting and a government seige for weeks now, but in a glimmer of hope, a three-day ceasefire is under effect. We have already seen dozens of people being allowed out, and food aid is slowly trickling in. It is part of a UN-brokered deal between the government and opposition fighters. Up to 2,500 civilians are said to be living in squalid conditions in the city, many are starving and now some are leaving, but not everyone will have that luxury. Men between the ages of 15 and 55 are forced to stay put.
