| Syrian troops celebrate clearing a neighborhood in Damascus of insurgents. |
A
Syrian brigadier general says the army has taken control of all the
neighborhoods in the capital, Damascus.
“We
have cleansed all the districts of Damascus, from al-Midan to Mazzeh, from
al-Hajar al-Aswad to Qadam… to Tadamun,” said the general, whose name was not
mentioned in the report.
Meanwhile,
insurgents kidnapped a Syrian TV cameraman in Damascus.
Earlier
on Saturday, the security forces discovered a mass grave of the bodies of
civilians and Syrian army members near the capital.
The
Syrian troops have killed a large number of terrorists in clashes between
government troops and insurgents across the country over the past few days.
In
the western province of Hama, the Syrian army carried out an operation on
Saturday, killing dozens of insurgents in the town of al-Rastan, about 184
kilometers (114 miles) north of Damascus.
Many
people, including large numbers of security forces, have been killed in the
turmoil in Syria that began in March 2011.
On
August 3, the UN General Assembly passed a non-binding resolution on Syria,
proposed by Saudi Arabia, which criticized the Security Council and the Syrian
government.
However,
Russia and China condemned the resolution and said it undermined peace efforts.
