Danny Abdul Dayem, an activist with dual Syrian and British nationality,
pleads for international intervention in Syria through a series of desperate
videos filmed in Homs.

Video blogger Danny Abdul Dayem, 22, says he filmed the impassioned pleas for help in the Baba Amr region of Homs, which has been bombarded by government forces in recent days.

The sustained attacks have targeted the largely Sunni areas of Homs where rebels of the Free Syrian Army have a strong presence, notably the Babr Amr district.

Claimed to have been filmed on Wednesday, the footage shows the activist standing in the street against a backdrop of destruction and falling rockets.

"This is the life we have gotten used to - rockets, bullets killing children dead in the street, body parts. Why isn't the world helping us? Where is the humanity in the world? Where is the fricking UN? Why isn't anyone doing anything about this?" he demands.

As smoke is seen rising from a building behind him following another explosion, he continues: "That was another rocket that landed over there. See this is happening every day. Where is the UN.? Where is the humanity? Where is America? Isn't America supposed to defend humanity? Isn't the UN supposed to defend humanity? Are we animals dying here? Are we supposed to live like this our whole lives?"

Later, Mr Abdul Dayem is seen inside a home with five children. Two have their heads bandaged, with one child appearing to wear heavily bloodstained clothes.

"Look at these children. Is this how the Assad regime is supposed to treat our children?" the activisit says pointing at the group.

"Now you see that the Assad regime is killing children. What is the UN going to do about this? Nothing! They are going to sit and discuss and see if they can do this peacefully - they want to solve it peacefully with this murderer."

Activist group Human Rights Watch claim that President Bashar al-Assad's forces "have fired hundreds of shells and mortars into populated neighbourhoods", killing at least 300 people in Homs since 3 February.
