Bloodshed in Syria
The Syrian city of Homsa continues to be beseiged and is still the epicenter of the fight against incumbent President Bashar Asad. The observers of the league of Arab countries comprised of 50 experts and soldiers have already arrived in Homsa and have spent the first night there.
They have already revealed that 29 people died as a result of clashes in the Bamba Amr Homsa central district last Monday.
However, the observers still haven't been able to enter Bamba Amr Homsa district, Head of the National Council of the Syrian opposition Burhan Galyun told journalists in Paris.
"The observers have been taken as hostage by the Syrian regime. They are not provided with cars to travel around the district," Burhan Galyun declared.
According to the UN, 5,000 people have died as a result of the 9-month bloody clashes in Syria. The official Damascus declares that the peaceful demonstrators are not the ones that have turned against the country's armed forces and the police, but armed terrorists with the goal of destabilizing the country.
EuroNews reports that the observers in Syria have to clarify whether President Asad will fulfill his promise and dislocate the forces out of the residential areas or not.
