[Amanpour:] Well, each day brings more astonishing images from Syria. And this one has been no exception. Take a look at what happened at a rally in the town of Rafsan on Friday.
[Anderson:] An activist says these people were shelled by the Syrian military. At least 16 people were killed there. Meanwhile, in Homs, aid groups were told they would be allowed into the hard hit neighborhood of Baba Amr. But right now, they are still on stand-by. In the last half hour, ICRC's spokesman, Hicham Hassan, gave this reaction to not being allowed in.
[Hicham Hassan, Spokesman, Icrc:] It's extremely disappointing to see that after families have been waiting for weeks now, affected deeply by the violence, with a lot of needs and urgent needs, not just any needs, have still not gotten their necessary assistance. We are still there now in Homs with the Syrian Red Crescent. We will attempt to go inside Baba Amr while now assessing families who have fled the violence-stricken neighborhood. This is why we renewed now, through our president, our appeal for a cessation of fighting as soon as possible, all over the affected areas, and for two hours a day. It's very important today and it's unacceptable that people still don't have help.
[Anderson:] The ICRC spokesman, speaking to us just moments ago. And we'll have much more on the situation in system later this hour. A look now, though, at some of the other stories that are connecting our world tonight tonight. And it's not yet legally binding, but most EU leaders have now committed to an agreement which sets up new rules requiring European governments to balance their budgets or else face what's being called an automatic correction mechanism. Twenty-five of the 27 leaders signed the accord in Brussels on Friday. They will now take it back to their own parliaments for approval. Britain and the Czech Republic opting out of that accord. An extra 6,000 police officers have been called in to Moscow to help keep the peace before and after Sunday's presidential election. Russians will be choosing from five candidates, including the current prime minister and strong favorite, Vladimir Putin. Now, be sure to join me Sunday for live coverage of the Russian presidential election Sunday night, starting at 5:00 p.m. London, 6:00 in Berlin or you can probably work it out, the times locally to you, right here on CNN. Well, Prince Harry, third in line for the British throne, is due to arrive in the Central American country of Belize shortly. He'll be there on behalf of his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, as part of her Diamond Jubilee celebrations later this year, the prince's first solo tour representing the British monarch, who is head of state in Belize. Well, CNN's Max Foster is covering the trip for us. He's at the airport awaiting the prince's arrival amongst, I believe, a bevy of international media. What is it about the prince that warrants this interest, Max, do you think?
[Max Foster, Cnn Anchor:] Well, there is a lot of interest in him, I think. And people like him. He seems like a fun-loving. We see him throwing himself into everything that he does. And this is, as you say, his first overseas tour representing the queen. So it's a really big deal. And it's a pivotal year for the queen. It's her Diamond Jubilee year, 60 years on the throne, she's celebrating. So everyone very interested to see how he does in this public role. It's kind of a coming of age, really, for him, I guess you could say. You can see a red carpet literally just been rolled out. His private jet is going to come in here. Then he's going to head off to a street party. And he's going to try the local brew, we're told, and some brandy. And then he's going to get some dance moves. So we're going to get a real sense of his character. It's going to be quite funny. He's going to try some local delicacies, Becky. I'm told one of them is cow's foot soup, which is exactly what it sounds like. Then tomorrow, he's going to climb an ancient Mayan pyramid and take in some of the culture there. It used to be a palace, but not quite Buckingham Palace. We'll see how he does there. But he's going to throw himself into all of these events, Becky. So it's going to be fascinating to see. We'll bring you all the reporting.
[Anderson:] Just up in I expect so. And I expect you to tell me what cow's foot soup tastes like, because we expect you do to exactly what Prince Harry is doing on that trip. Max, thank you for that. A British photographer wounded in Syria says what is happening there is and I quote him systematic slaughter. Still ahead, Paul Conroy speaks from his hospital bed now here in the U.K. about the sheer scope of the crackdown. Clinging on for dear life how social media shows the true horror of Japan's devastating tsunami this time last year. That coming up and your sports headlines after this.
