Assad forces carrying out execution-style killings, activists

Share:

Syrian activists are accusing government forces of carrying out execution-style killings and burning homes in the Baba Amr neighborhood of Homs (hohms).

The Red Cross is heading into the area following a bloody, monthlong siege by President Bashar Assad’s regime to dislodge rebel forces in the city.

A Syrian activist who fled to Lebanon from Baba Amr two days ago says a colleague still in the neighborhood has told him that Syrian troops and pro-government gunmen are conducting house-to-house raids and anyone over the age of 14 is being detained He says 10 men were lined up this morning in front of a government food cooperative and shot dead.

The U.N. is expressing alarm over the situation and says it’s received unconfirmed reports of 17 summary executions.

The U.N. estimates more than 7,500 people have been killed since the uprising against Assad’s rule began nearly a year ago. Activists put the death toll at over 8,000.

  3. The Signs of the Times and the
    End of the Age

    3  Now as He sat on the
    Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when
    will these things be?  And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of
    the end of the age?”

    4  And
    Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives
    you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I
    am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6  And you will
    hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for
    all these things must come to pass, but the end is not
    yet. 7  For nation will rise against nation, and
    kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences,  and earthquakes in various
    places. 8  All these are the beginning of
    sorrows.

    9  “Then they will deliver you up to
    tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s
    sake. 10  And then many will be offended, will
    betray one another, and will hate one another. 11  Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.
    12  And because lawlessness will abound, the
    love of many will grow cold. 13  But he who
    endures to the end shall be saved. 14  And this
    gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the
    nations, and then the end will come.
