Human Rights Watch Says Syria Using Cluster Bombs -- BBC
A leading human rights watchdog has accused the Syrian government of dropping cluster bombs on populated areas during its fight against rebels.
The New York-based Human Rights Watch said online video reports purporting to show evidence of such weapons being used had recently multiplied.
Cluster bombs are banned by 77 countries under a convention because of the threat they pose to civilians.
Syria has not signed up to the convention.
There was no immediate comment from Syrian government officials on the HRW accusation.
