E.U puts in news set of sanctions against Syria after Turkey saed it has intercepted an arms shipment at sea destined for the protest-wracked country after another day of deadly demonstrations.
The new measures are the seventh set of E.U. sanctions imposed to punish the regime of President Bashar al-Assad for its relentless crackdown on dissent that erupted in mid March.
Earlier this month, the E.U. adopted a ban on Syrian crude oil imports.
