He said "today's meeting confirms the existing deteriorating the human rights situation in Syria. The reports on the situation in Al-Qusair town show that the Syrian forces waged a fierce war using airstrikes, missiles, heavy artillery and the most heinous types of killing, torture, rape, detention and other inhumane acts." --More 23:28 LOCAL TIME 20:28 GMT تغريد
