Syrians Continue Protests amid ViolenceThousands of protesters hit the streets in cities across Syria on Friday, billed as a "day of martyrdom", to demand political reforms.
However, gunmen in plainclothes attacked the crowd and fired live ammunition, killing a girl and injuring many others.
The Syrian state news agency accused "armed gang" for the firing, while the government has ordered an inquiry into the incident.
