"Kill any journalist who set foot on Syrian soil," a pledge made by the army of President Bashar al-Assad. Their pledge demonstrated desperateness in keeping every reporter, who will attempt to tell the world about the merciless killing of civilians in the city of Homs, silent.

Their pledge has resulted to the killing of a 56-year-old correspondent from the Sunday Times, Colvin, along with a 28-year-old French photographer Remi Ochlik.

Both were killed at the press center located beside the hospital. A rocket-propelled grenade caused their death. Officers of the Syrian army were heard discussing of an alibi for killing the journalists. Witnesses said they would claim the death of the journalists as a result in crossfire with terrorist groups.

The incident triggered a worldwide protest. Britain's Foreign Secretary, William Hague, said the world has to stop Assad's terror movement. The French President, Nicolas Sarkozy, on the other hand, said it must stop.

Before Colvin got killed, he accused President Assad's army of murder. She said the president's forces were not merely targeting terrorists. His regime is keeping a country of dying, hungry people.

She had also attended interviews with multiple broadcasters such as CNN, BBC and Channel 4, where she described Syrian's killing as completely disgusting.

Paul Conroy, British photographer, who was together with Colvin was injured during the assault including the French reporter Edith Bouvier.

Britain and France ordered immediate medical assistance to be given to the other Western correspondents injured during the attack.

Civilians and rebels were killed resulting to a count of 60 dead bodies, which were recovered from the Sunni Muslim district after the bombardment that happened Wednesday afternoon. According to some activities, 21 other people were killed earlier that day.
