Syrian forces continue to bombard the Damascus suburb of Douma with heavy shelling. At the United Nations, the U.N.’s top human rights official, Navi Pillay, said the arming of both sides of the Syria conflict is creating a dangerous situation.

Navi Pillay: “There is a risk of escalation. The provision of arms to the Syrian government and to its opponents is fueling the violence. Any further militarization of the conflict must be avoided at all costs.”
