- 10 years ago
--STORY CONTAINS GRAPHIC IMAGES --
This is Syria's other civil war, far from the besieged border town of Kobani.
Amateur video which can not be independently verified by Reuters shows the aftermath of an attack on a market in suburban Damascus....air strikes purportedly carried out by government forces targeting rebel communities.
In the chaos the living and the dead.
Hospitals are overwhelmed. Children are among the wounded.
It's a desperate scene, repeated countless times in a war now in its fourth year.
The war in Syria has already cost the lives of nearly 200,000 people.
With front lines blurred across the country the death toll rises daily, with no end in sight.
