Airstrikes, Casualties Leave Syrian Truce in Shambles
(CNN) Hamdi Alkhshali - Syrian government airstrikes pounded opposition stronghold neighborhoods on the outskirts of Damascus on Sunday, leaving a temporary truce between President Assad's forces and rebels in shambles. Widespread fighting across Syria left at least 128 people dead. About 40 soldiers loyal to the Syrian regime surrendered to rebels who had laid siege to their checkpoint in Al-Alaneh in Idlib province, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Sunday.
