Anti-Regime protesters in a small Syrian town have broadcast a message of solidarity with South African anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela, whose is battling for his life in a Pretoria hospital.
Marching on
Friday in the northwestern town of Hass, near Syria's border with Turkey, the
protesters held a large banner declaring: "Nelson Mandela! We wish we
could take all your pains and add them to ours. God bless you."
CNN reported Wednesday that Mandela was placed on life support after being hospitalized for a recurring lung infection June 8. Mandela's family said on Thursday that the icon is doing better in recent days.
A human rights
group announced this week it estimates that the war in Syria has claimed more
than 100,000 lives since March 2011.
