Syria grants amnesty to group of militants
The Syrian government has granted amnesty to a group of Takfiri militants
who used to fight against the countrys army, Press TV reports.
According to Damascus, the amnesty is part of ceasefire agreements between
the Syrian army and the militants in several towns in the western
countryside of the Syrian capital to restore peace in the area.
I started fighting [against the Syrian government] thinking we would have a
better future, but when the foreign militants started coming in and
dominating the scene I knew it was wrong, one of the militants who has
turned himself in said.
A rehabilitation program has also been organized for those who have turned
themselves in.
Meanwhile, Syrian army forces continued their military operations against
the foreign-backed militants across the country, inflicting major losses and
casualties on the terrorists.
On Saturday, Syrian troops launched an operation in the north of the
capital, taking control of several industrial buildings. They also
discovered a tunnel used by the militants.
Syria has been gripped by deadly violence since 2011 with ISIL Takfiri
terrorists currently controlling parts of it, mostly in the east.
The Western powers and their regional allies - especially Qatar, Saudi
Arabia and Turkey - are reportedly supporting the militants operating inside
Syria.
More than 191,000 people have been killed in over three years of fighting in
the war-ravaged country, says the Office of the UN High Commissioner for
Human Rights (OHCHR), calling the figure a probable underestimate of the
real total number of people killed.
