U.n. Observers In Syria Attacked By Crowds, Shot At

Tue, 06/12/2012 - 11:30pm — azcentral.com | Arizona Republic Front Page

BEIRUT -- Angry crowds blocked U.N. observers from reaching an embattled rebel-held town in Syria on Tuesday, hurling stones and metal rods at the monitors' vehicles. Their vehicles came under fire as they drove away from Haffa, but the source of the gunfire was not clear, the U.N. said.
