Syria: Syrian air force raids rebels near Damascus
The Syrian air force struck on Sunday a rebel’s suburb east of the capital Damascus, activist groups said.
The suburb of Subaineh was raided four times on Sunday, activists said, alleging that the strikes targeted residential buildings. But the account could not be verified independently.
The area, about 10 km east of Damascus and home to about 300, 000 people, has recently emerged as a battlefield for the government troops and the rebels. On Friday, Syrian media accused the rebels of setting ablaze two major detergent factories in Subaineh.
