Syria Fighting Continues in Several Cities 
-------------------------------------------


 
Violence is raging in cities across Syria as rebel fighters clash with
the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Syrian activists say
Assad's forces have stepped up attacks in Homs, which has seen heavy
fighting over the course of a four-month siege. Ariel and ground attacks
have also been reported in Aleppo, while a bombing at the police
headquarters in Damascus has left one officer dead.
