This image made from amateur video released by the Ugarit News and accessed Thursday, July 19, 2012, purports to show a Free Syrian Army soldier aiming his weapon during clashes with Syrian military troops in Midan neighborhood in Damascus, Syria. Government forces struck back against rebels with attack helicopters and shelling in a fifth straight day of clashes in Damascus. The inability of the military to control the clashes in the capital against lightly armed rebel forces and the deadly bombing of a high-level security meeting a day earlier made Assad's hold on power look increasingly tenuous.
