The bombardment of Baba Amr resumed in the early morning with rockets and artillery shells smashing into the already devastated quarter where several hundred rebel fighters from the Free Syrian Army are believed to be holding out. Among the many victims were the veteran Sunday Times correspondent Marie Colvin and the French photo journalist Remi Ochlik. They died when shells racked a makeshift press centre.
