Syrian Army Kills 6 Turkish Officers, Terrorist Commander in Reef Idlib


The Syrian army killed half a dozen Turkish officers and a terrorist commander in a series of military operations in Reef (outskirts of) Idlib in Northwestern Syria.




The army targeted the concentration camps of the armed rebels in M'asaran town of Ma'areh al-Naman region in Reef Idlib on Friday, during which 6 Turkish officers and ringleader of the Northern Shield terrorist group known as Ahmad Asaf were killed, FNA dispatches said.
6 Free Syrian Army (FSA) commanders were also killed during an air raid on rebels' concentration centers in Reef Idlib on Friday.
An American reporter was also among those killed during the Syrian army's attack on terrorists' hideouts in Reef Idlib.
Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011 with organized attacks by well-armed gangs against the Syrian police, border guards, statesmen, army and the civilians being reported across the country.
Thousands of people have been killed since terrorist and armed groups turned protest rallies into armed clashes.
The government blames outlaws, saboteurs, and armed terrorist groups for the deaths, stressing that the unrest is being orchestrated from abroad.
In October 2011, calm was almost restored in most parts of the Arab state after President Assad started a reform initiative in the country, but Israel, the US and its Arab allies brought the country into chaos through every possible means. Tel Aviv, Washington and some Arab capitals have been staging various plots in the hope of increasing unrests in Syria.
The US daily, Washington Post, reported in May, 2012 that the Syrian rebels and terrorist groups battling Assad's government have received significantly more and better weapons in recent weeks, a crime paid for by the Persian Gulf Arab states and coordinated by the United States.
The newspaper, quoting opposition activists and US and foreign officials, reported that Obama administration officials emphasized the administration has expanded contacts with opposition military forces to provide the Persian Gulf nations with assessments of rebel credibility and command-and-control infrastructure.
According to the report, material is being stockpiled in Damascus, in Idlib near the Turkish border and in Zabadani on the Lebanese border.
Opposition activists who had earlier complained that the rebels were running out of ammunition started saying in May 2012 that the flow of weapons - most bought on the black market in neighboring countries or from elements of the Syrian military in the past - had significantly increased after a decision by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other Persian Gulf states to provide millions of dollars in funding each month.
