Violence is on the rise in Syria again today, as clashes erupted in the northern region around the Turkish border while forces loyal to Bashar Assad attempt to cut off supply routes to the rebel factions being supplied from Turkey.
The clashes centered around the town of Darkush, a key rebel stronghold positioned on the Turkish border, as well as along a major northern highway in Syria. Reports indicate that some 18 people have been killed in the area.
Between those 18, and the 16 others reported slain in shelling in Homs, opposition figures reveal that well over 100 people have been killed today, although the math through which they obtained that result was not immediately apparent.
The Red Cross has been pushing for a ceasefire around portions of the nation, to give an opportunity to bring humanitarian aid to people trapped by the ongoing combat. So far it doesn’t seem that either side is close to agreeing to this.
Turkey belongs to Saudis and UAE, Turkey have become modernized in terms of real estate its paid and built by tyrants of Middle East, Turkey wants to join the EU so they have to for fill their obligation toward NATO first before being accepted, it is UAE and Saudis who pays these terrorists groups and it is them who supply these terrorist with arms and it is them with EU and US government knowledge who wants for this war to continue, therefore they put gasoline on the fire by getting Turkey, their slave to get involved. US and EU needs to stop any kind of democracy in the region because it will spread into UAE and Saudi Arabia, Jordan and other part in Middle East, so it is cheaper in short terms for US, EU and Saudi Arabia and others to have these little wars then investing for long term democracy.
“…Forces loyal to Bashar Assad…”
F*** you mother***er. Appropriately it is called, Syrian government forces”.
Acutally there are at least two organizations claiming to be "the Syrian government" — Assad's ABSP/NPF regime and the Syrian National Council.
Is there any particular reason why Antiwar.com should treat either one with favoritism as regards its purported "legitimacy?"
