More victims buried in tense Syria
More victims buried in tense Syria - "Syrians prepared for more angry funerals on Sunday after security forces gunned down at least five mourners during burials for anti-government protesters killed the previous day in the third largest city Homs".
Funerals in Homs, which is turning into a focal point in the nine-week uprising against the regime of President Bashar al-Assad, were taking place amid mounting calls by the international community for a stop to the violence. Those killed on Saturday -- at least five according to activists -- were marching during the funeral procession of several people who were among 44 killed during protests that swept the country on Friday. "Tens of thousands had accompanied the funeral procession from the city's main mosque to Tal al-Nasr cemetery," an activist told AFP by telephone. "The shooting began as people were coming out of the cemetery" in Homs.
