Video Shows Syrian Police Firing on Unarmed Kurds
(Reuters/Sydney Morning Herald) - Israeli television stations broadcast film Sunday showing Syrian policemen firing from automatic rifles at unarmed people running through streets and fields during clashes between Syrian Kurds and police on March 12 and 13. Automatic gunfire and screams can be heard. About 30 people were killed in the clashes in northern Syria. "The pictures were taken by the Kurds in Kameshli. They were broadcast out of the area before the Syrians closed down the Kurdish media outlets," said Ehud Yaari, a correspondent for Israel's Channel Two television.
