Beirut, Ramadan 29, 1433, Aug 17, 2012, SPA -The Syrian government pounded the country's largest city Thursday, using aerial forces to shell neighborhoods and intensifying the siege that has become a focal point of the country's civil war. At least 238 new deaths were reported across Syria on Thursday, according to the opposition Local Coordination Committees of Syria. The deaths include 75 in Aleppo. They also include 60 unidentified bodies found in Qatana, a Damascus suburb, the LCC said. The bodies, found in a landfill, "seem to have been executed in a massacre by the regime's army," the group was quoted as saying by CNN. At least eight people were killed and more than 50 wounded when shells struck near an Aleppo bakery where people had lined up to buy bread, said Ahmad al-Zaeem, a commander in the rebel Free Syrian Army. At least 150 people have been wounded in the latest violence in Aleppo, he said. --SPA 12:59 LOCAL TIME 09:59 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/1023228
