Activist working with Syrian rebels confirms that the Net is largely down in Syria.

Syrian rebels bombed the house of a top member of the country's ruling Baath party in the south on Thursday, killing him and his three body guards, activists said.

#InternetCutinSyria The internet has been down in #Syria for 4 hours now!

#Syria is officially offline, even websites like sana.sy are unreachable (that means leading hubs are disconnected).

Major shift in Russian policy towards Syria? Very interesting - particularly in light of Putin's visit next week to see Erdogan in Turkey. I wonder if this is a way to keep NATO from deploying the Patriots in Turkey?

NOW Syria @NOW_Syria #Russia has officially asked #Syria to cease the use of armored vehicles and heavy machinery -Al-Arabiya

* Fighting along airport road heaviest during crisis

* Internet down in Damascus, phone lines disrupted

* Rebels advancing but "not last days yet" for Assad
 Quoting: Beezy


Who's making lots of money from all this fighting, killing, death and destruction? Hmmm? How about the global corporations, especially those in the defense industries? Hmmm? Who controls the INTERNET, really? Hmmm? Think they cannot throw the "kill switch" on any nation or anyone who's using their technologies? Hmmm? Think they won't kill anyone who doesn't think the way they do? Think again!

1438 GMT: More news from Damascus. Al Jazeera reports fighting on the main road leading to the airport:

Fighting between rebels and government troops has forced the closure of the main road leading to Damascus airport.

The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said clashes were particularly intense in Babbila, a southern suburb bordering the rebel stronghold of Tadamoun.

There are rumors that the entire airport is closed. That's not clear, though there is clarification of an earlier report - the Emirates airline says it has stopped flights because "the safety of our passengers and crew is of the highest priority and will not be compromised."

Those aren't rebels. They are terrorists. Bashar Al-Assad is the only reason the middle east hasn't erupted into total war for the past decades. If Bashar falls, so does the rest of the middle east. the only civilized countries left would be Turkey and Israel
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12373605


Syria must fall in order for the Obama Arab Spring, aka the Muslim Brotherhood Caliphate to take total control of the Mid East.

1446 GMT: Is the Damascus airport closed? Egypt air has delivered passengers but has halted all other service:

Airport sources in Cairo said an Egypt Air flight that left at 1:30 pm (1130 GMT) had landed in Damascus as scheduled.

"The Egypt Air plane has arrived ... and passengers are all safe but the pilot was instructed to take off back to Cairo without passengers if he felt that the situation there is not good to stay for longer," an official at Cairo airport said.

1456 GMT: According to Flight Radar 24, there are no planes in the air over Syria right now.

The only editorial note - we don't have a reference of what normal traffic would look like. However, it is clear that today is not normal.

So far, however, Flightstats.com says that the only flight that has been cancelled to or from Damascus international is the Dubai flight which we already reported.
