ينبغي مساءلة القوات السورية والجماعات المسلحة على جرائم الحرب
قالت منظمة العفو الدولية اليوم: "إن الأوامر التي أصدرتها السلطات السورية بتطهير شوارع دمشق لا تعني فتح الباب أمام قصف المناطق السكنية بشكل قانوني."
مع تزويد المعارضة بالأسلحة والقدرات العسكرية على نحو أفضل وازدياد حدة القتال في المناطق الحضرية المأهولة بالسكان، فإن المزيد من المدنيين يصبحون عرضة للخطر.

Syrian forces and armed groups will be held criminally responsible for war crimes
Orders to clear the streets of Damascus issued by the Syrian authorities do not open the door to a legal bombardment of residential areas, Amnesty International said today.
As members of the opposition become better equipped with weapons and armaments, more and more civilians are being exposed to danger as fighting intensifies in populated urban areas.
