U.S, West-backed and financed terrorist groups martyred six Syrian policemen despite ceasefire


At least six Syrian law enforcement officers have been killed in a roadside bomb attack by U.S, West-backed and financed armed groups despite a ceasefire brokered by UN-Arab League envoy Kofi Annan.
According to Syria’s state news agency SANA, 11 others were also wounded in the blast in al-Mastoumeh town in Idlib Province on Wednesday.

The bomb was detonated on al-Mastoumeh-Idlib road as a group of law enforcement personnel passed the area.

In another incident, armed groups fighting against the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad killed a policeman in the southern city of Dara’a.

Calm has returned to most parts of Syria since the ceasefire was announced almost a week ago, though there have been reports of sporadic clashes in some parts of the country with Damascus accusing armed groups of violating the truce by continuing attacks on government forces.

Opposition activists have been claiming that the army has killed a number of civilians since the ceasefire took effect last Thursday.

Syria has been experiencing unrest since mid-March 2011 and many people, including security forces, have been killed in the unrest.
