More than thirty people have died today, according to a provisional balance during political demonstrations against the regime of Bashar al-Assad called for today, according to reports from various sources. The largest number of victims occurred in the central city of Homs, where 14 people have died, and in the southern town of Izra, where it has reported the death of at least 11 people.
Another eight deaths occurred in the neighborhood of Douma, on the outskirts of Damascus, and three more in the capital's Mohadamia sector, also in the capital. The wounded in different parts of Syria are dozens. The death toll has been provided by opposition activists in reports provided by the social network Facebook and residents and medical sources consulted by the Qatari television network Al Jazeera.
The casualties occurred during the demonstrations that began at the end of noon prayers on Friday, the most important religious holiday for Muslims on a day called Good Friday by opposition activists. A resident of the town of Dera, near Izra, told Al Jazeera said the security forces and plainclothes officers are preventing ambulances out of hospitals to treat the wounded.
In several of those demonstrations, police used guns to suppress public protests, which took place one day after President Bashar al-Assad signed a decree to end the state of emergency in force since 1963. The repeal of the Emergency Law was one of the main demands of opposition groups that also claim political reforms in the system and the release of detainees in the Syrian capital and other cities of the country woke up today with a strong army and device Police had not been seen in a long time.
