Around 400 people should be urgently evacuated from the besieged Syrian town of Madaya to receive medical treatment, UN diplomats have said.
Around 35,000 people are trapped in the town and had not received supplies since October until a an aid convoy arrived on Monday.
Aid volunteers were greeted by "crowds of hungry kids" as they began unloading much-needed humanitarian supplies in the besieged Syrian town of Madaya.
The United Nation's refugee agency said despite the cold and rain, there was "excitement" at the help being brought in.
At least 50 trucks are taking food and medical supplies to 35,000 people trapped in Madaya which had been cut off from help for months.
An aid convoy intended for starving locals in a besieged Syrian village is due to set off on Monday, amid calls for the world to do more.
Shocking images from Syria shine a light on a cruel, medieval form of torture being inflicted on citizens - starvation, writes Rageh Omaar.
