| Aftermath of nearly 2 years of battle in Damascus |
On Tuesday, a mortar shell hit a school, killing twenty-nine students and their teacher.
Syria's government was quick to blame it on rebel forces and terrorists, but the army was shelling that area, at the time.
Over fifty thousand people have been killed in the twenty-one month long civil war.
For the last few days, international worries have focused on Syria's chemical weapons.
US intelligence showed movement near where they are stored, and fears have come that the Assad regime may consider using them against the rebels.
The US was joined by NATO and most western countries in condemning any such action.
Israel announced that they are closely watching the weapons, as well.
