(Zaman Al Wasl)- Syria insurgent forces, Nusra Front and other Islamist groups, captured a hilltop in southwest Syria from government forces on Sunday after two days of battles, Reuters reported.
The capture of al-Hara hill, close to the Israeli frontier, gives the Islamist insurgents the highest vantage point in the Deraa province and is a major blow to the Syrian regime military, said Rami Abdulrahman, who runs the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
