Syria unrest spills over borders

Turkey has protested about Syrian forces firing across the border at people fleeing the violence, the first such attack since Turkey began taking in refugees fleeing the unrest.

In another incident, a Lebanese cameraman was killed on the Lebanese-Syrian border as the disorder threatens to spill into neighbouring countries.

Jim Muir, reporting from Beirut in Lebanon, said there seemed to be "little prospect" of the planned ceasefire "gaining hold".
