联合国安理会发表一份声明，强烈谴责叙利亚政府在上星期的一次屠杀事件中动用大炮和坦克炮轰一个反政府武装控制的城镇，至少108人死于这一屠杀事件，其中很多是儿童。

联合国安理会星期天发表的新闻声明说，联合国观察员证实，叙利亚中部城镇胡拉的一个居民区遭到叙利亚政府军大炮和坦克的反复轰炸，数十名平民被炸死。

安理会这个联合国机构还谴责说，在上星期五的屠杀事件中，一些胡拉镇居民死于近距离枪杀或残酷的肉体折磨。在持续将近15个月反抗叙利亚长期总统阿萨德的起义中，这是死亡人数最多的其中一次事件。但是，安理会这项没有约束力的声明没有指出近距离枪杀和残酷肉体折磨是何人所为。

The U.N. Security Council has issued a statement strongly condemning the Syrian government for firing artillery and tank shells at a rebellious town last week during a massacre of at least 108 people, many of them children.

In the press statement issued Sunday, the Council said U.N. observers had confirmed the killing of dozens of civilians "in attacks that involved a series of government artillery and tank shellings on a residential neighborhood" of Houla in central Syria.

The U.N body also condemned the killing of Houla residents "by shooting at close range and by severe physical abuse" in last Friday's incident, one of the deadliest of Syria's nearly 15-month rebellion against longtime President Bashar al-Assad. But, the Council's non-binding statement did not say who was responsible for the shooting or physical abuse.
