The U.N. has restarted its aid mission in the besieged rebel-held Old City of Homs after hours of talks aimed at saving a truce between warring parties. U.N. vehicles towed trailers of food into the city, and aid agencies prepared buses to transport fleeing civilians. The current ceasefire deal is due to end late on Wednesday, but the regime has said it will allow an extension. Hundreds were evacuated from the Old City after a truce was agreed last Friday, but more than 1,000 remain.
