1. RTE (Ireland): 11 killed at funerals of Syria protesters
Up to 11 people have reportedly been killed during funeral services for pro-democracy protesters in the Syrian capital of Damascus.

Witnesses say pall bearers abandoned coffins and ran for cover after mourners at the mass funeral came under fire.

Yesterday, 88 people were killed by Syrian security forces during anti-government demonstrations.

It is reported that tens of thousands of people have turned out throughout the country for the funerals, and that anti-government chants were heard.
