Syria's Civil War Reaches Third Anniversary

As Syria's civil war hits it's third anniversary, fighting continues going strong.

As many as two hundred and fifty thousand people have been killed, with two million displaced.

With the Assad regime on one side and two different main rebel groups, which fight each other as well, the war does not look to have an end coming any time soon.
Peace talks still have not achieved anything substantial in the three way civil war.

However, some forward motion has been noted, as earlier in 2014, for the first time refugees were allowed out of besieged cities, as two of the sides attempt to improve their humanitarian face.

International focus continues to wain as time goes on and other events distract from it.
