According to a report by The Telegraph, "The Syrian army unleashed a massive attack on the city of Homs early on Saturday morning, bombing the protest hub and killing at least 260 people in a bloody 'massacre,' activists and witnesses said."
The Syrian Expatriates Organization board member, Mr Louay Sakka said, "Syrian regime is responding to the international community, by brutally murdering those that, the UNSC resolution would protect, Assad's forces are murdering, torturing, and detaining citizens for any form of opposition to the government. Families in their entirety are dying, under the rubble of their homes, after government forces mortared three buildings. Their cries of help are going unanswered."

The Syrian Expatriates Organization calls for people, to continue protesting, at the Syrian embassies worldwide, to show solidarity with the Syrian people. SEO board member Mr Louay Sakka said:" It is urgent that: the bloodshed of innocent citizens ceases, in the fight for freedom and that, the brutal actions of government forces on Homs, are prevented in Zabadani."
