BEIRUT â" Â Syrian activists say government warplanes have been bombing the central city of Homs, one of the flashpoints of the 18-month-old uprising against President Bashar Assad.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says Friday's attack is the worst the city has seen in five months. The focus of fighting has shifted to other areas, including Syria's commercial hub of Aleppo, since a government offensive against rebel strongholds in Homs ended in April.
There were no immediate reports of casualties.
The Observatory, which relies on a network of activists on the ground, said tanks and mortars as well as aircraft had bombarded the city's Khaldiya neighborhood.
Activists estimate that more than 30,000 people have been killed during Syria's uprising and civil war.

Self-pity is easily the most destructive of the nonpharmaceutical narcotics; it is addictive, gives momentary pleasure and separates the victim from reality. John W. Gardner (1912â"2002) Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you. Thomas Jefferson You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you. James Lane Allen A man is but the product of his thoughts, what he thinks, he becomes. Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948) Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved, and always will solve, the problems of the human race. Calvin Coolidge (1872-1933) Formula For Success, by Chuck Gallozzi 1. Resolve/The moment we begin to achieve our goal is the moment we make up our mind to do so. ⦠2. Knowledge/Once we are committed to a goal, we need knowledge to help us reach it. ⦠Knowledge is based on facts. Information is merely something that someone says. ⦠You will also need the willingness to dig deeply enough to uncover all the facts. 3. Plan/⦠You've found out where to go, how much it costs, how to enroll, how long it takes to become qualified, what the health requirements are, and when the next sessions start. Now that you have some knowledge to work with, you make a plan. ⦠(List) all the steps, and intermediate steps, you must take to achieve your goal. 4. Action â¦/There is magic in action, for whenever you do what you can, you immediately can do more. Each step brings you closer to your goal. ⦠5. Diligence/Doing something is not enough. Doing everything as best as we can is what is needed. Just taking action is insufficient; diligent and focused action is what it takes to succeed. ⦠6. Perseverance/We will run into obstacles. ⦠You can't fail unless you quit before succeeding. ⦠The roadblocks we face are not the problem. It is the inability to persevere despite them that is the problem. ⦠7. Prudence/Perseverance or endurance does not mean to proceed blindly, without concern for the consequences. ⦠To remain steadfast at all costs may be more a sign of stubbornness than one of perseverance. ⦠Sometimes, the only way to go forward is to retreat and try another route.
