UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon expressed revulsion on Tuesday over atrocities in Syria's two-year civil war as detailed in a report prepared by U.N. human rights investigators, a spokesman for the world body said.

"He has seen this report," Ban's spokesman Martin Nesirky told reporters. "Frankly he finds the catalogue of atrocities in that report to be both sickening and staggering."
