Fighting Continues Over Eid. The AP reports that fighting continued throughout the country, despite the Muslim religious holiday of Eid al-Adha. “Syrian warplanes have been bombing the suburbs of Damascus while rebels have fired mortar shells at the capital on the first day of a major Muslim holiday,” wrote Diaa Hadid. “Tuesday’s fighting shows how entrenched both sides in Syria’s civil war have become. Earlier in the fighting, the sides occasionally attempted to observe holiday cease-fires.”
