International leaders meet about uprising in Syria

Posted: Updated:

SYRIA (CBS) - International leaders meet again today about the uprising in Syria.

Human rights activists claim about 80 people - including women and children, were killed by a pro-government militia. United Nations observers who tried to reach the site of the massacre were turned away by gunfire.

For more than a year, the Syrian government has tried to crush a rebellion and thousands have died in the violence. The head of the UN says the nation is on the verge of civil war.
