An estimated 18 thousand people, including many women and children, remain trapped in the Yarmouk Palestinian refugee camp in southern Damascus.
It's been cut-off by Syrian rebels for more than a year now.
Hundreds of relief parcels have managed to reach the camp for the first time in several months but that's too late for at least 85 people who have died there since the middle of last year from illness and starvation.
RT's Maria Finoshina took a trip to this rebel enclave.
