Teenagers start filling ranks as rebel losses soar

 So has Assad's army been having any troubles recently?

 "Conscription in the Syrian Army is compulsory for all males once they reach the age of 18. But at the camp, rebel officials say theirs remains an all-volunteer force and that prospective recruits are carefully vetted."

 John Kerry just told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that "defections have gone up" from Assad's army.
