The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay says more than 2,200 people have been killed in Syria in the five-month-old crackdown by Syrian forces on anti-government protesters. On Monday, Pillay outlined the findings of a new U.N. report on Syria.

Navi Pillay, U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights: “The mission concluded that, while demonstrations have been largely peaceful, the military and security forces have resorted to an apparent shoot-to-kill policy. Snipers on rooftops have targeted protesters, bystanders who were trying to help the wounded and ambulances. The mission also documented incidents of summary execution outside the context of the demonstrations and during house-to-house searches and in hospitals. Victims and witnesses reported widespread attempts to cover up killings by the security forces, including through the use of mass graves.”
