DTN News - SYRIA UNREST: Syrian Forces Kill 20 Protesters After Friday Prayers
(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada / AMMAN, Jordan - August 13, 2011: Syrian forces shot dead at least 20 protesters Friday, activists said, as tens of thousands demanded the overthrow of President Bashar al-Assad, chanting "we will kneel only to God."
Defiant protest marches unfolded across the country despite a military crackdown that has intensified since the beginning of the fasting month of Ramadan, triggering sanctions and condemnation abroad.
These included protests in the cities of Hama and Deir al-Zor, both of which have been stormed in tank offensives launched by Assad at the beginning of the Muslim holy month.
