"A Syrian army general has reportedly defected to the opposition, saying that morale in the army had collapsed. A man identified by opposition activists as General Mohammed Ezz al-Din Khalouf announced his defection in a video shown on al-Arabiya TV. He is said to have reached safety in neighbouring Jordan. There was no comment from the Syrian government. New York-based group Human Rights Watch has again accused the government of using cluster bombs against civilians. An estimated 70,000 people have been killed and one million have fled Syria since the uprising against President Bashar al-Assad began two years ago." info@als-alexander.orgor interalex1@yahoo.com
