Hundreds of rebels have been evacuated from their last stronghold in the central Syrian city of Homs. Two convoys of buses have so far left the Old City under a deal brokered by Iran and facilitated by the UN. The withdrawal is part of a deal that will also see rebels release dozens of captives and ease two sieges.
