Marie Colvin was the only British journalist reporting from inside the besieged Syrian enclave of Baba Amr. This is her final report
They call it the widows’ basement. Crammed amid makeshift beds and scattered belongings are frightened women and children trapped in the horror of Homs, the Syrian city shaken by two weeks of relentless bombardment.
Among the 300 huddling in this wood factory cellar in the besieged district of Baba Amr is 20-year-old Noor, who lost her husband and her home to the shells and rockets.
“Our house was hit by a rocket so 17 of us were staying in one room,” she recalls as Mimi, her three-year-old daughter, and Mohamed, her five-year-old son, cling to her abaya.
“We had had nothing but sugar and water for two days and my husband went to try to find food.” It was the last time she saw Maziad, 30, who had worked in a mobile phone repair shop. “He was torn to pieces by a mortar shell.”
For Noor, it was a double tragedy. Adnan, her 27-year-old brother, was killed at Maziad’s side.

FOREIGN JOURNALISTS KILLED IN BABA AMR, HOMS. MARIE COLVIN AND REMI OCHLIK. Homs (Baba Amr) Feb 22, 2012 - This was her final dispatch from Homs with Anderson Cooper on CNN.
Their home, the de-facto media center in Baba Amr was hit with no less than 11 rockets. This is not random. This was intentional.
When a person with no relation or personal interest risks their life to travel thousands of miles from their safe and comfortable home to document and show the world the crimes of an evil regime and its sick despot it defies words.
Thank you to all the journalists who took it upon themselves to show the world what Assad and his forces are doing to the people of Syria. There are no words to express my gratitude.
May all martyrs rest in peace.
