Nine bodies found in Syria town

Nine bodies, some of them mutilated, were found in a town near Damascus, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Friday.

The Britain-based watchdog said it was unclear who carried out the killings but opposition groups blamed pro-government militia and demanded international action to prevent such "massacres."

"The bodies of nine people were found in Hamouria in Damascus province, some with their throats slit," the Observatory said.
