ARMED CLASHES IN SYRIA’S KESSAB CONTINUE (VIDEO)
12:15 * 25.03.14
The militant attacks in Kessab, Syria’s Armenian-populated region
that has been a target of Islamist fighters since Sunday, have entered
their third day.
The region is now said to be under the armed opposition’s control.
Government forces were earlier reported to have sent troops from
Latakia.
A footage posted in a Facebook group shows militants keeping an
Armenian church under control.
The Islamists pretend that they do not intend to desecrate Christian
sacred places, but the comments below suggest that the “honest”
goals do not inspire wide confidence.
