HRW says Syrian army uses new type of cluster munition

Syrian forces are using indiscriminate cluster bombs despite international condemnation of the use of the banned munition, Human Rights Watch said on Monday, dpa reported.

"Evidence indicates that Syrian forces used BM-21 Grad multi-barrel rocket launchers to deliver cluster munitions in attacks near the northern city of Idlib in December 2012 and in Latamneh, a central town northwest of Hama, on January 3, 2013," HRW said.
