Syrian Forces Kill 21 As Observers Fan Out

Tens of thousands of protesters rallied in a square near Damascus today as Syrian security forces killed 21 civilians nationwide and peace monitors spread out to areas hit by unrelenting violence.

Some 30,000 people gathered in a square outside the Grand Mosque in Douma, a protest centre just north of the capital, prompting security forces to pull back from previously held positions, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
