Regime Attack Kills 34 İn Syria, Activists Say

At least 34 people, including seven children and five women, were killed in air and ground operations across Syria on Tuesday by forces of President Bashar al-Assad, opposition activists say.



The London-based Syrian Network for Human Rights watchdog said that 34 people had been  killed on Tuesday, including 12 in Idlib, eight in Homs, seven in Aleppo, one in each of Damascus's suburbs, Raqqa and Hama, etc.



Syrian official news agency SANA confirmed that Assad's forces had killed miltants in operations throughout the country.



Syria has been gripped by constant fighting since the regime launched a violent crackdown in response to anti-government protests in March 2011, triggering a conflict, which has spiraled into civil war.



The UN has stopped updating its death toll for the country because an official count has become too difficult to verify. At least 100,000 deaths were recorded in the last official count in July 2013.
