Escalating violence in Syria leaves many dead
2:18 PM
Escalating violence in Syria leaves many. Human right activists say reprisal ambush in Hama province resulted eight soldiers dead after government forces killed five civilians. At least thirteen people have been killed in Hama province after troops burnt a car and provoked a reprisal ambush in the latest bloodshed in a nine-month-old uprising against President Bashar al-Assad’s regime. Wednesday was the second day in a row in which an attack by Assad’s forces on civilians appears to have brought a quick and deadly act of retaliation by anti-government fighters, Aljazeera.com reported.
