Worst violence in Syria since Assad fall as more than 130 killed in clashes
Published 11 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
A war monitoring group says the number of people summarily executed by Syrian security forces in former president Bashar al-Assad's Latakia stronghold has risen to 134. We speak to a Syrian Alawite in the area. Also on the programme: President Trump seems to give his backing to an overnight Russian bombardment of Ukraine; a call to arms in Poland to counter the threat from Russia - military training for all adult men. We hear of the power of the micro-influencers and Lady Gaga on what she says is her angriest song ever.
