Assad Forces Fire Scud Missiles in Syria
(CNN) Barbara Starr - Syrian forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad have fired at least four Scud missiles inside Syria, presumably at rebel groups, a U.S. official said Wednesday. Earlier this month, a U.S. official said Syrian forces had already fired some 20 rockets with a range of 60 miles. State Department officials point to barrel bombs - incendiary explosives with flammable material similar to napalm - that are being deployed by the Syrian government.
