叙利亚人权活动人士说,叙利亚政府军在冲突焦点城市霍姆斯展开新一轮炮击,至少造成17人死亡,多人受伤。阿拉伯卫星电视台星期一从霍姆斯播放的画面显示,被袭击摧毁的建筑向天空冒出滚滚浓烟。这座城市的很多地区都受到攻击,一条输油管道也爆炸了。叙利亚国营电视台报道说,这些爆炸是“恐怖团伙”干的。由于叙利亚限制记者在其境内进行独立新闻报道,没有独立消息来源证实死伤人数。袭击发生几天前,活动人士报告说,霍姆斯发生屠杀。他们说,政府军从星期五晚间到星期六的炮击至少造成200人死亡。这可能是叙利亚11个月的动乱以来死亡人数最多的一起事件。霍姆斯已经成为反对派抵抗叙利亚总统阿萨德当局的焦点地区。

Syrian rights activists say at least 17 people have been killed and many more wounded in a new bombardment by Syrian forces on the flashpoint city of Homs. Arabic satellite television stations broadcast images from Homs Monday that showed smoke billowing into the sky from buildings damaged in the violence. The attacks occurred in several parts of Homs, where an oil pipeline also exploded. Syrian state television says "terrorist gangs" were behind the bombings. There was no independent confirmation of the casualties as Syria restricts independent reporting in the country. The violence comes several days after activists reported what they called a massacre in Homs, saying at least 200 people died in a government bombardment late Friday into Saturday, in what appeared to be one of the deadliest incidents of the 11-month revolt. Homs has become a focal point of opposition resistance to the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
