DAMASCUS- Syrian Government denied Saturday the assault in Homs, which has been
one of the main flashpoints of opposition during the uprising, and where a
barrage of mortar shells by Syria’s regime forces killed 200 people and wounded
hundreds in Homs, according to press reports published earlier.
Press reports considered the assault “an offensive that appears to be the bloodiest episode in the nearly 11-month-old uprising against President Bashar al-Assad`s regime”
But Syrian TV said Saturday that the assault reports were untrue and come in the context of "incitement by the armed groups" against Syria to be exploited at UN Security Council. It also claimed that corpses shown in amateur pictures and videos posted online — bodies that activists said were victims of the assault — were purportedly of people kidnapped by "terrorist armed groups" who filmed them to portray them as victims of the alleged shelling.
