Syrians in Homs Feel Abandoned by World
Residents are pessimistic about last week's "Friends of Syria" conference
and say they see no real pressure for change.

The Syrian military took its bombardment of the rebel-held Baba Amro
district of Homs into a fourth week on Saturday as the Red Cross tried to
evacuate more distressed civilians from the city.
.
At least 28 people were killed in Syria on Saturday, including nine in
Homs, Syria's third city, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human
Rights.

Deploring the outcome of an international "Friends of Syria" conference,
opposition activists said the world had abandoned them to be killed by
forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad.
.
"They (foreign leaders) are still giving opportunities to this man who is
killing us and has already killed thousands of people," said Nadir
Husseini, an activist in Baba Amro.
.
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) said it had resumed
negotiations with the Syrian authorities and the opposition to enable more
civilians to be brought to safety.
.
Husseini said people in Baba Amro were suspicious of the ICRC's local
partner, the Syrian Arab Red Crescent, and did not want to work with a
group "under the control of the regime."
.
The ICRC denied this, saying the Syrian Red Crescent was an independent
organization. "Their volunteers are risking their lives on a daily basis
to help everyone with no exceptions," ICRC spokesman Hicham Hassan said in
Geneva.
.
The ICRC said the Syrian Red Crescent had evacuated a total of 27 people
from Baba Amro on Friday.

Activists in Homs, a city of over 800,000 people located at the junction
of highways leading from Damascus to Aleppo and the coast to the interior,
described Friday's Friends of Syria meeting in Tunisia as a failure that
had brought them no relief.
