A protest broke out at a mosque in the Damascus district of Kafarsouseh after the Morning Prayer. An eyewitness just spoke to Al Jazeera, saying:

"Security forces and shabiha thugs arrived at the mosque, first using sound bombs and teargas to stop the protest. Protesters threw teargas canisters back at them and also used some rocks. Security forces responded with live ammunition, and 8 protesters were injured. One man was severely wounded after being shot in the chest.

"The Red Crescent arrived at the scene, but protesters refused to hand over the injured in fear that the Red Crescent would be forced to hand over the wounded to the security forces.

"Protesters were pushed back into the mosque, and the imam, Ousama Rifai, went out to negotiate with the security forces to let them leave. Rifai was then arrested, as well as many others who left the mosque when security forces said they were free to leave in groups of 10.

"There has now been a call for protesters to head towards Abaseen Square."

Syrian Resistance: The high price of protesting in Syria: jail and abuse

BEIRUT (Reuters) - For thousands of protesters who have been marching in the streets of Syria against President Bashar al-Assad, the fear of a hand, its owner invisible, snatching them from the crowd, looms large.

It means they have been caught by security men, in plain clothes, mingling in the crowd. It marks the beginning of a detention, probably involving beatings, blindfolds, handcuffs and verbal abuse -- and possibly worse punishment for daring to protest against 40 years of autocratic rule by the Assad family.

Syrian authorities have expelled Reuters correspondents and banned most independent media from reporting on the unrest that has gripped the country for more than two months, making it hard to report on every aspect of the pro-democracy protests inspired by other uprisings in the Arab world.

Another Candidate for UNSC Intervention.
