Arwa Damon reports on sustained bombardment in Homs, Syria

CNN’s Arwa Damon (@arwacnn) has reached the besieged Syrian city of Homs, where activists say trying to flee from homes under attack is now virtually a suicide run. Here she tells CNN’s John Vause (@vausecnn) about the sustained bombardment in Syria’s third largest city.

“Just to give you an idea of how intense this bombardment has been, yesterday morning activists were saying they counted around 55 explosions in just the span of 15 minutes – and they say that has been the norm,” says Damon.
