Bloodshed increases greatly in Syria

According to what UNICEF's spokesman said this past week has been the bloodiest of all, 5,000 people (rebels and civilians) died in August alone and 1,600 in the past week. The Syrian government is responsible for a massacre of 35 civilians including children in Al Fan in the Hama province at one time. The "reason" for this massacre was a "terrorist" group was said to have been in the area and the government forces wanted to find them and kill them. Also the Syrian government is not allowing CNN to cover the civil war for undisclosed reasons. 3 airforce bases are being used by Syrian forces to kill civilians, a rebel force managed to launch a succesful 11 day siege on one to prevent further murder of civilians.
