The chief correspondent of Channel 4 News, Alex Thomson, allege the Free Syrian Army deliberately guided himdself and his Channel 4 News colleagues into what he described as a "free-fire zone" in "no-mans land"with the deliberate purpose of getting them killed by the Syrian government army.
"I'm quite clear the rebels deliberately set us up to be shot by the Syrian army. Dead journos are bad for Damascus." and he added. "In a war where they slit the throats of toddlers back to the spine, what's the big deal in sending a van full of journalists into the killing zone? It was nothing personal."
