الجيش السوري يسيطر على بلدة إبل بدعم من حزب الله والمعارضة تسيطر على مطار عسكري

Read this story in English W460

شددت القوات النظامية السورية اليوم الخميس الضغط على مقاتلي المعارضة في محافظة حمص (وسط)، بسيطرتها على قرية واقعة بين مدينتي حمص والقصير، بحسب ما افاد المرصد السوري لحقوق الانسان.

وقال المرصد في بريد الكتروني "سيطر مقاتلون من اللجان الشعبية المسلحة الموالية للنظام السوري وحزب الله وجنود من القوات النظامية على بلدةابل" جنوب مدينة حمص، والواقعة الى بعد اربعة كيلومترات من الطريق الدولي دمشق - حمص - حلب (شمال).

من جهتها، افادت وكالة الانباء الرسمية السورية (سانا) ان القوات النظامية "بسطت سيطرتها الكاملة على بلدة ابل في ريف حمص بعد ملاحقتها لفلول الارهابيين وتكبيدهم خسائر كبيرة".

وتحاول القوات النظامية في الايام الماضية عزل المقاتلين المعارضين بين مدينتي حمص والقصير القريبة من الحدود اللبنانية.

وتدور في المنطقة اشتباكات عنيفة يشارك فيها بحسب المرصد مقاتلون موالون لحزب الله ، بهدف عزل مقاتلي المعارضة في هذه النقطة الاساسية لربط دمشق بالساحل.

وقال مدير المرصد السوري رامي عبد الرحمن في اتصال هاتفي مع وكالة فرانس برس ان سيطرة النظام على آبل "تعيق حركة المقاتلين المعارضين بين حمص والقصير".

والى الجنوب الغربي من آبل، سيطر مقاتلون معارضون على كامل مطار الضبعة العسكري في ريف القصير اثر اشتباكات عنيفة استمرت اياما.

واوضح المرصد ان المطار "يخضع لادارة الدفاع الجوي منذ العام 2009 بعدما توقفت حركة الطائرات (العسكرية) فيه"، وكان من المقرر تحويله الى مطار مدني "لكن مع انطلاقة الثورة السورية (منتصف آذار 2011) اصبح مركز تجميع لقوات الجيش النظامي في ريف القصير".

واشار عبد الرحمن الى "معلومات عن وجود طائرتي ميغ للتدريب في المطار، لكنه لم يستخدم كمطار عسكري منذ العام 2009".

ويعد سلاح الطيران نقطة تفوق اساسية لنظام الرئيس بشار الاسد ضد معارضيه في النزاع المستمر منذ عامين، وادى الى مقتل اكثر من 70 الف شخص، بحسب الامم المتحدة.

واليوم، قصف الطيران مناطق عدة في سوريا، منها مدينة داريا (جنوب غرب دمشق) تزامنا مع اشتباكات فيها، مع محاولة القوات النظامية منذ مدة فرض سيطرتها الكاملة عليها، بحسب المرصد.

وقال المرصد ان الطيران الحربي قصف كذلك مناطق في محافظتي حماة (وسط) ودير الزور (شرق).

وفي شمال البلاد، قال المرصد ان القوات النظامية ترسل تعزيزات الى بلدة بابولين الواقعة على الطرف الشرقي للطريق الدولي بين دمشق وحلب، والمؤدي الى معكسري وادي الضيف والحامدية اللذين فكت عنهما الحصار قبل ايام، في محافظة ادلب (شمال غرب).

وقال المرصد ان القوات النظامية تسعى الى "فرض سيطرتها على الطريق الواصل بين مدينة خان شيخون ومعسكري وادي الضيف والحامدية بريف معرة النعمان"، المدينة الاستراتيجية التي سيطر عليها مقاتلو المعارضة في تشرين الاول الماضي.

وادت اعمال العنف الخميس الى مقتل 22 شخصا في اعمال عنف مختلفة، بحسب حصيلة اولية للمرصد الذي يتخذ من بريطانيا مقرا ويقول انه يعتمد على شبكة من الناشطين والمصادر الطبية في سوريا.

ويأتي ذلك غداة مقتل 139 شخصا جراء اعمال العنف، بحسب المرصد.

Europe and America should support the revolution. If they don't, Islamists will take all the credit. The Syrian regime cannot win this war, not against a jihad. It'll be another Afghanistan without the caves. The tyrant won't feel it hidden in his palaces, but the poor people will be directly in contact with the jihadists...

Sorry mowaten can't say I did because I browse on my phone. I'll check it when I'm home :)

But my point was the one peace just mentioned.

You are quick to deny the veracity of a video saying it can be staged or faked and then you use video links as evidence.

Also, knowing HA, of course they won't come out and declare it. It was only last year, in january I believe, that nasrallah officially for the first time acknowledged HA gets money and military support from iran. Did you really think because it was never proven, that maybe someone else was supplying them with weapons?

Missing peace 20:15 ,2013 نيسان 18

dog is an insult? no it is a fact...
if you think dogs are insulting it shows your level...

but you always deny bashar massacres and defend them finding him excuses, deny hezbollah s implication proven by hard facts : that is what makes you not credible and not even worth discussing with....you are no better than the baathist regime you defend and by doing so insulting the memories of the thousands of lebanese killed by it... only one word for you: tfeh....

Roar if you really don't care if bashar stays or leaves and think we can just live in our little hole in the wall we call lebanon, then you really don't understand the geopolitics of the region..or anything really.

Phoenix my friend, you know well that the islamic terrorists were not the fsa's first choice. Give them the resources to put them at a stop and anhialate them, i would like to believe they would.

Stepping back and saying oh terrorists, we should leave them be will only make terrorists stronger and moderates weaker.

The minorities in lebanon faced a sea of enemies, from all sides for years now, but no one was able to push the other into the sea. The LF resorted to israeli support (the equivalent of qaeda), but they survived and did not pledge allegiance to israel. Today the LF just like any other party in lebanon considers israel an enemy. Its easy to talk and accuse, but history will always be the judge in the end, and if anyone has any proof of current LF collaboration with israel, you dont have to show me. Take that info direct to the security forces.
