Mortars kill at least 20 in Damascus refugee camp
ATFP World Press Roundup Article from The Associated Press by Paul Schemm - August 3, 2012 - 12:00am Mortars rained down on a crowded marketplace in a Palestinian refugee camp in the Syrian capital, killing at least 20 people as regime forces and rebels fought nearby, activists said. The attack on Yarmouk camp may well have been connected to a two-day long skirmish in the nearby Tadamon neighborhood, which has been repeatedly shelled by government troops. On Friday smoke could be seen pouring from the neighborhood. |
