إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Nineteen people were killed across Syria on Tuesday, most of them civilians who died in the heaviest shelling of protest city Homs for days, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
"The shelling of the Baba Amr neighborhood began at dawn and is the most intense in five days," the Observatory's Rami Abdel Rahman said, referring to the main rebel stronghold in Homs city.
"Two rockets are falling a minute on average," the head of the Britain-based group told Agence France Presse by phone, citing activists on the ground.
"Six civilians died in the continuous shelling of Baba Amr neighborhood this morning," the Britain-based monitoring group said later in a statement emailed to Agence France Presse.
Elsewhere in the central province of Homs, three farmers who had been detained at a checkpoint were later found dead in the town of Quseir, said the Observatory.
Another three civilians were shot dead during clashes in the town of al-Atareb, in northwestern Aleppo province.
In the southern province of Daraa, cradle of an 11-month uprising against President Bashar al-Assad's iron-fisted rule, security forces killed one civilian in the town of Nimir.
And in Damascus province, an army deserter died in clashes with the military at Irbin town, the Observatory said.
Five soldiers were killed and nine were wounded during fighting with army deserters at Qalaat al-Madiq, in the central province of Hama.
In southern Daraa province, deserters captured a lieutenant in the town of Lajat and demanded the authorities release prisoners in exchange for his return, it said.
And in the province of Damascus, security forces opened fire on a student demonstration in the town of Maadamiyet Esham, according to the watchdog.

The Sunni crazies from all nationalities who are terrorizing the inhabitants of Homs and elsewhere must be crushed, just like the US is doing to the Sunni crazies elsewhere. Everybody should contribute to this crushing, and pursue these crazies from Akkar, Tripoli and to the end of the earth. 3alehom

Quran-Sura: Al Baqara
190. Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for Allah loveth not transgressors.
191. And slay them wherever ye catch them, and turn them out from where they have Turned you out; for tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter; but fight them not at the Sacred Mosque, unless they (first) fight you there; but if they fight you, slay them. Such is the reward of those who suppress faith.
192. But if they cease, Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
193. And fight them on until there is no more Tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in Allah. but if they cease, Let there be no hostility except to those who practise oppression.

the filthy zionist media terrorists are very dissapointed that syrian regime slowly but surely tighten the noose around their friends in syria.
that's why they have random hallucinations like operation staffenbers 2 and our glorious resistance being same as syrian regime.
they are so desperate, because they really have nothing to say anymore just repeating old stupidities.

the filthy zionist media war terrorist still hallucinate that, after the end of syrian regime (which is still yet to happen, despite them predicting it for a year now), that they will deal with me.
why do you have to wait for the end of assad regime? why don't you send your filthy militia now. after all, you still hallucinate about winning in 2006. so it shouldn't be a problem for you.

I hope Calipahtes and Welayat Elfagih will duke it out and terminate each other so ordinary people can live in peace and dignity. It is Fantaics like them that justified the creation of dictators and tyrants in our midst..... enlightened minds are scarce in our Orient.

Is it fair to say that the last bastion of the multinational crazy fanatics is about to fall? The people of Homs should prepare the masks because those who were not killed by the crazies will definitely die of the unbearable stench of rotting filth.
