Syrian demonstrators ‘Crawl to Freedom Square’

0

Demonstrators in Syria camped out in public squares to protest the regime of President Bashar al-Assad, in a nationwide rally dubbed “The Crawl to Freedom Square.” Violence against the protesters by al-Assad’s security forces continued, even with Arab League monitors in the country to determine if the Syrian government is abiding by a call to end violence. Syrian activists continued to urge defiance against government-imposed curfews.

“Today we will go out to the squares not to show the Arab League something, but we will go out because we have rights,” Saleh Al-Hamwi, a spokesman for the Syrian Revolution General Council in Hama said. “And we will go after these rights.” Since mid-March, over 5,000 people have been killed in protests against al-Assad’s regime.
