Turkey Seeking Its Journalists in Syria

Turkey has asked the Syrian government to locate two of its nationals, working journalists, who have gone missing in the war-torn country.

Syrian government forces refuse to allow Red Cross workers into Homs as they continue “mop-up” operations: raping and murdering civilians.

In less than a month, three journalists have been killed, three managed to escape and two are still missing in action in Syria, one wounded.

At least 144 people died across Syria on Monday, mostly in Homs. Bodies of dead journalists still trapped in besieged city.

Red Cross aid workers entered a besieged neighborhood in the Syrian city of Homs, negotiating to evacuate the wounded there.

A veteran American journalist was killed and a second seriously wounded by the Syrian Army in Homs. A French photographer also died.
