(Zaman Al Wasl)- At least 15 troops from coastal Tartus province were killed in January and February, pro-regime media activists said.
The death toll included four army officers.
The Alawites-dominated areas are still the main manpower supply for Bashar al-Assad's regime.
More than 130,000 pro-regime forces have been killed in seven years of brutal war, according to local monitoring groups.
