The UN human rights council is considering a resolution put forward by the United States, Turkey and Qatar to censure the Syrian regime for attacking civilians in the besieged town of Al-Qusair. The text, presented in Geneva on Tuesday, calls on the government to immediately stop attacking civilians in the strategic town and "stresses the need to ensure accountability for those responsible for the massacre in Al-Qusair." The 47 countries on the UN Human Rights Council are scheduled to take a vote on the matter in a specially convened session on Wednesday, according to a report of the Associated Press.
