A mother seeks answers from the Syrian government representatives in Geneva. The UN World Food Program has published images and brief descriptions of what has happened in South Sudan. Another good collection of images from the Typhoon Haiyan aftermath in the Philippines. As the Olympics kick off the Kremlin puts pressure on another opposition media channel.
