Syrian government forces killed more than 60 people on Tuesday in assaults on villages and an artillery barrage in the restive city of Homs

Considering how often we hear about artillery being used at Homs I'm surprised it doesn't look like Passchendaele. Seriously if you shell a town for a couple of weeks and there are still buildings standing you aren't doing it right. And crater fields aren't restive.

You call it a town, but it’s the 3rd largest city in Syria, with a population of about 1 million people.
