Syria protests: Three killed in Homs after prayers
At least three people have been killed as thousands attended anti-government protests across Syria after Friday prayers, human rights activists say.
The casualties were reported in the country's third city, Homs, where at least one demonstrator was shot in the head when security forces opened fire.
There were also reports of gunfire in the unstable southern city of Deraa.
