On May 13, a fifth batch of 1,500 militants and their families withdrew from the northern Homs countryside pocket to the northern governorate of Idlib, according to the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA). The evacuation of these militants was a part of the reconciliation agreement, which was reached on May 2.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) said that more than 13,000 militants and civilians had been evacuated from northern Homs to Idlib governorate and the city of Jarabulus in the governatore of Aleppo, so far. The SOHR added that more militants will be evacuated during the upcoming days.
Meanwhile, the Syrian al-Madina Radio revealed that the Syrian security forces had foiled an attempt to smuggle heavy weapons from northern Homs in the evacuation buses. The sources said that several heavy machineguns and loads of ammunition had been seized by Syrian security forces at an inspection point.
Under the evacuation agreement, militants in northern Homs countryside should hand over all of their weapons to the Syrian Arab Army (SAA). While the Free Syrian Army (FSA) surrendered most of its weapons, several radical groups are yet to fulfill this condition.
According to Syrian pro-government activists, many militants in the Hula region in northern Homs have not accepted the reconciliation agreement yet. These militants will likely face a military operation led by the Tiger Forces if they do not obey the agreement before the end of the evacuation process.
At this point i think the guy responsible for the smuggling can’t stop them from delivery high chances it’s getting intercepted.
Great… just get all them Big Guns away from them… Will Make the Conquering of Idlib Province a lot Easier… Bibi Guns are Good enough for Headchoppers
I would have provided all of them, with individual imploding jackets.
I would have preferred to Blow Up Every Green Bus…… that ever left a single Pocket..
But then you turn into “them”
NoO… You make the World a little Better Place
Correct, plus once in Idlib they don’t need more than a AK47s to kill each other hehehe
I understand why the Rebels would attempt to keep some of their weapons, but did they really expect to be able to hide .50 cals on a bus?!?!?!
They hid them in a place where the Sun doesn’t Shine…
Yeah smaugs ass.
This is not the matter for jokes. If you want humor from me look up Glaudrung on iFunny.
Wasn’t joking….
Yeah, you’re trolling. This is the real world, Merjin. Not a humor app.
I’m not a Troll… I am a Hasbara Hunter….I hunt for Hasbaras… have you seen any?
Smaug sees a hasbara troll every time he has a shave Merijn :)
Smaug is a Mossad troll and a totally pathetic one.
How dare those Syrian inspecting UN humanitarian aid !
Again troll you are an expert in online bull shit, not smuggling, military or intel, quit thinking that you are more then a pathetic loser who post crap here.
You, Mike, sound like the troll. You are being derogatory. You are using names. This is inappropriate. Stop or get out of the conversation. No trolls allowed and that means fitting the above description. Leave Smaug alone.
They got stiffed on a bribe.
That might be true…
Just wait when Syria and their allies Russia, Iran, Hezbollah and Palestine are ready to start operation in the South Syria. This will be a game changer. Recently King Abdullah of Jordan also went to Moscow and meet with Mr. Putin and loud Mr. Putin efforts in the stability of Middle East countries. On the other hand Egypt also signed defense contracts with Moscow. The Middle East countries finally have realized that it is better for us to ally with Russia instead with America for solid threats.
Yes, I agree, Southern Syria (and, of course, Golan Heights) is the game changer and real challenge to Rothschild and chums who own oil rights on Golan Heights.
SAA should take all weapons from them because then they kill each other by these weapons.
i hope they dont accept the agreement and get what they deserve.
Could it be possible that the latest strike by Israel that blew up ammunition sites were deliberately targeted because they stored captured Israeli weapons and needed to be destroyed? May explain the indiscriminate attack against weapons storage areas by Israel and the Syrians, Iranians and Russians are not too concerned over it.
Oh, no, they are concerned.
