Syrian security forces hit southern town

A number of people were killed and wounded as Syrian troops swept into the flashpoint southern town of Daraa with tanks and snipers on Monday.

Citing rights activists, AFP reported that 3,000-strong military force swarmed into Daraa early Monday, with tanks taking up positions in the town centre and snipers deploying on rooftops.

According to activists, they were unable to count the casualties as the snipers made it impossible to reach them.

“Bodies are lying in the streets and we can’t recover them,” one activist was quoted as saying.
