Human shields used in violent raid of Syrian city, opposition says

(CNN) -- Despite fresh political maneuvering on both sides of the Syrian crisis, relentless killing raged on Monday as a peaceful resolution appeared to be a mere fantasy.

At least 21 people were slaughtered across the country on Monday morning, opposition activists said. Intense shelling rained on Deir Ezzor province, where eight corpses were found after regime forces raided the city at dawn, the opposition Local Coordination Committees of Syria said.
