Mass demonstrations that emerged in most of the cities 14 people were killed and many others wounded by security forces in both Homs,  Daraa and Hama. the death toll rose to 19 people, Where, reports talk about five explosions heard in a neighborhood of Homs, after Assad’s troops stormed into it.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that "13 Syrians were killed on Friday, afternoon and another was critically injured after shooting them from a security checkpoint in the Bab Alseba’a."
Syrian Observatory said that,  the death toll in the city of Homs, rose to 11, nine of them died on Friday after the mass demonstrations that emerged in most of the cities, and dozens wounded, some critically injured.
the observatory also reported that one syrian was killed, and five others were wounded by the security forces while they were trying to break down a funeral of a protestor who was killed on Thursday in Jasim town, in Dara'a.
Syrian authorities has cut electricity, cellular, and imposed a curfew in the region.
Protesters pouring into Syria's streets are cheering the death of Libya's ousted ruler, Muammar Gaddafi.
The death of Gaddafi appeared to reinvigorate Syria's protesters, who say President Bashar al-Assad's regime will be the next to unravel.
On Friday, protesters carried signs that read, “We congratulate Libyan rebels for the victory”. Dozens also were seen marching in the Damascus suburb of Douma, chanting slogans calling on Assad to resign.
Meanwhile, the Assad government continued its violent crackdown on Friday, as security forces shot dead two people at a checkpoint in the rebellious central city of Homs, the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
The White House repeated on Thursday that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had lost his legitimacy to rule.
Barack Obama, the US president, said earlier that Muammar Gaddafi's death showed that "the rule of an iron fist inevitably comes to an end”.
Asked whether that statement was meant to send a message to Assad, who has led a military crackdown on seven months of pro-democracy protests, White House spokesman Jay Carney stuck to familiar language about Syria.
Videos have been posted on Youtube showing Syrians celebrating the death of colonel Muammar Gaddafi. This video is said to show protesters in Homs chanting: ''Bashar your turn is coming.''
Protesters have been calling for President Bashar al-Assad to resign since March.
Human rights groups from around the world on Thursday urged the 193 UN member states to adopt a resolution in the General Assembly demanding that the Syrian government halt the use of deadly and excessive force against demonstrators.
The 29 rights groups include Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International.
They said in the joint appeal that the General Assembly must take action against Syria following vetoes by Russia and China on October 4 of a Security Council resolution that threatened sanctions against Bashar Assad's regime if
it didn't immediately halt its military crackdown against civilians.
There are no vetoes in the General Assembly, but unlike the Security Council, its resolutions are not legally binding.
At least 13 people have been killed in anti-government demonstrations on Thursday.
Clashes has raged between troops and suspected army deserters in the crisis-hit country, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
"Violent clashes today pitted troops to gunmen believed to be army deserters" in Burhaniya, near the town of Qusayr in central Homs province, Rami Abdel Rahman, who heads the rights watchdog, said.
He quoted residents as saying "several soldiers were killed and wounded and two military vehicles were destroyed".
Abdel Rahman told AFP power, water and communication had been cut off in Qusayr on Thursday.
Syria has agreed to receive an Arab League committee that was set up after Arab states called for an end to violence and for dialogue between the government and the opposition, Egypt's state news agency MENA said.
Earlier this week, Arab foreign ministers called on both sides to hold dialogue within 15 days. They formed a committee of five ministers to visit the country.
Syria had "welcomed receiving the committee", MENA quoted Wagih Hanafy, the League's assistant secretary-general, as saying.
The group is due to travel to Damascus on Wednesday.
