A member of the European Union\'s delegation in Syria was killed on Tuesday in a rocket attack in Darayya, to the south-west of the capital Damascus. EU policy officer Ahmad Shihadeh lived in the area and was killed while providing humanitarian help to the community, said Catherine Ashton, the EU foreign policy chief. According to the Local Co-ordination Committees (LCC), an opposition activist network, two surface-to-surface missiles had landed in Darayya on Tuesday night. It added that Darayya had came under renewed artillery and rocket fire on Wednesday, and that army reinforcements were being deployed from the nearby Mezzeh military airport. Another opposition activist group based in the UK, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said that government forces had bombarded the town. Ashton did not say who the EU believed was responsible for Mr Shihadeh\'s death.
