Syrian Activists: Several Hizbullah Members Captured in Muadhamiyat al-Sham
[An Nahar] The rebel Free Syrian Army on Friday captured a number of Hizbullah members in Damascus province following festivities, Syrian activists said.

"The Free Army has seized control of several posts west of Muadhamiyat al-Sham," the opposition Local Coordination Committees, a network of peaceful Syrian activists on the ground, announced.

"a number of members belonging to the (Abu al-Fadl) al-Abbas Brigade and Hizbullah," the LCC said.

The Abu al-Fadl al-Abbas Brigade, which is fighting alongside regime troops, is a guerrilla group made up of Shiite fighters who hail primarily from Leb, Iran and Iraq.

It says that its objective is to defend Shiite holy shrines, particularly the Sayyeda Zainab shrine in Damascus, from any attacks by hardline Sunni myrmidons.
