UN official: civil war in Syria


The United Nations has warned that Syria is in a state of 'civil war,' as the government continues its eight-month crackdown on protesters. Meanwhile, the European Union and United States have imposed fresh sanctions on Damascus, and the Arab League has banned 17 high-level Syrians from travelling to Arab states. The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay yesterday raised the official death toll to 4,000, but said the actual number of casualties is probably higher. Listen RealAudioMP3
