Violence is raging across Syria as government forces attack rebel strongholds. Syrian activists say at least 94 people were killed in nationwide violence on Monday, including 64 civilians. A spokesperson for the U.N. mission in Syria warned that civilians in Homs are trapped by the gunfire.
Sausan Ghosheh: “When civilians are stuck and trapped in the line of fire, this is a humanitarian crisis. We need to ensure that these civilians are protected. We need to ensure that there’s respect and protection for the human life of the Syrian people. There needs to be willingness on behalf of the parties to ease the pain of the Syrian people and to release these civilians that are trapped in the line of fire.”
