| 2015-06-11 |
| [EN.ZAMANALWSL.NET] Al Qaeda's Syria wing, the Nusra Front, called on rebel groups operating in Eastern Ghouta suburbs near Damascus to form Ghouta's version of Fatah Army, like what Nusra did in Idlib province and Qalamoun region. Forming 'Fatah Army in Ghouta' as Nusra urged in statement posted online on Wednesday needs an approval of Islam Army that considered one of the most powerful unit in Damascus suburbs. Army of Fatah, a reference to the conquests that spread Islam across the Middle East from the seventh century, has seized swathes of territory northern Syrian since late of March 2015 including Idlib city, Jisr al-Shughour and Ariha towns. In relevant development, Islam Army said in statement posted online it has kidnapped a senior regime official early Wednesday, denying he is not the Justice minister as media outlets circulated. Islam Army has not yet disclosed who is he. |
