A terrifying video emerged last night showing Syrian rebels fleeing for their lives before a bomb explodes just metres away.
The close-up footage shows the terror civilians in Syria face on a day-to-day basis as the civil war rages into its 23rd month and the UN warns the death toll is approaching 70,000.
The video shows rebels wielding guns hiding behind a building as they wait for opportunity to run across to another street.
A few men make it across as a rebel signals for the camera-holder to move forward with the group.
But as they make their way forward, a bomb explodes just metres away in the very spot they were heading for.
A shaky camera then moves towards the scene of the blast where men can be seen lying dead on the ground.

My Comment: I have actually seen videos from worst than this one. But it does capture how bloody and violent the street battles are in Syria today. Not surprisingly, the UN is reporting that almost 10,000 Syrians have been killed in the past few weeks alone.
