Syrian security forces have killed 1,504 people since the start of anti-government demonstrations in mid-March, said Ammar Qurabi, head of the National Organization for Human Rights in Syria.
The death toll increased in the past day as tanks and helicopters pressed on with an assault on the village of Rameh in the northern province of Idlib, killing at least four people, Qurabi said in a telephone interview.
