Hama Countryside: Helfaya || Massacre:
Activists reported that regime forces committed a new massacre in Helfaya on Saturday evening, as they reportedly executed tens of civilians near the western entrance to the city after taking them as human shields. The death toll and the names of the victims are yet to be verified, as the area is surrounded by regime forces.

|| Situation in the City and Countryside ||
¤ Hama City:
This morning, Assad regime forces raided houses in al-Hamedeya neighborhood and arbitrarily arrested men over the age of 17.
Security forces in the area from al-Jamarek Roundabout to the Hama Military Airport were on high alert today. A pick-up truck carrying boxes and a Hyundai with mounted Doshka artillery were seen in the area, and vehicles kept moving to and from the airport.
In the evening:
Intermittent gunfire from al-Jamarek checkpoint was reported, as missiles were launched from the Hama Military Airport.

¤ Hama Countryside:
Helfaya:
More than 30 families were detained at the eastern Mharde checkpoint, and were used as a human shield by regime forces who were attempting to storm the city from the west. Rebel fighters retreated into the city to protect the civilians outside of it. Those civilians were then executed by the regime army.
Intense fighting took place at the western entrance to Helfaya between regime and opposition forces. Shelling of the city is unprecedented, and the bridge connecting Tayebt al-Imam and Helfaya was destroyed by the regime's shelling.
