Syrian watchdog claims government used cluster bombs

The opposition Syrian Observatory for Human Rights Friday released pictures of what it said were evidence of the government's use of cluster bombs in an area near the Turkish border, dpa reported.

The London-based watchdog said cluster munitions were dropped by Syrian warplanes against rebel fighters in the province of Idlib on October 11 and 12.

The images show what the organization described as spent cluster bomb canisters that had been dropped on the town of Saraqab in Idlib.
