The alliance will include Nusra Front, Ahrar al-Sham movement, Fatah al-Sham, al-Furqan Brigades and the consultations are underway to join Free Syrian Army (FSA).

The southern region near the border with Jordan and Israel is one of the areas where insurgents have inflicted significant defeats on Assad in the last three months, notably by capturing the Nasib border crossing with Jordan on April 1.
More than 230,000 people have been killed in Syria since the conflict began in March 2011 with anti-government demonstrations that were met with a regime crackdown.
