ISTANBUL (Reuters) - International aid for Syria has tailed off sharply in recent months with the conflict apparently slipping from people's minds even as the humanitarian crisis deepens, Turkey's IHH relief agency warned on Wednesday.

IHH, whose trucks ferry aid gathered in Turkey and abroad to Syria every day, said it was now delivering as little as a tenth of the aid it had been sending earlier in the year.
