Reuters reports — Syrian government forces bombed rebel positions in the frontier town of Ras al-Ain on Monday (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/50054047), killing at least 12 people according to opposition activists, and prompting Turkey to scramble fighter jets along the border.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said six of those killed by the air raids on the town's Mahatta neighborhood were rebel fighters and that 30 people were wounded.
