After some promising wins in Aleppo the rebels of the Free Syrian Army are being pounded by the Syrian Army. The country biggest city has become a key battleground in the nearly year and a half uprising against Bashar Al-Assad. According to the Syrian Human Rights Watch the number of deaths is now at 21 thousand persons, since March 2011. Sunday 40 more Syrians were killed across the country, 25 were civilians.
Other subject receiving international attention is the 48 Iranian nationals kidnapped Saturday in Damascus. Iran says the victims were religious pilgrims, but the Free Syrian Army said they are elite Iranian Revolutionary Guards. Iran has already asked for Turkey and Qatar help. The Iranians support the current regime while Turkey and Qatar support a new, less authoritarian one.
