    SYRIANS STAGE MASSIVE PRO-ASSAD RALLY IN IDLIB

    TEHRAN (FNA)- Thousands of Syrians took to the streets in the Northern
    province of Idlib on Monday to show their strong support for President
    Bashar al-Assad and his government.

    More than 8,000 people gathered in Ibrahim Hanano square in Idlib
    to voice their hatred for terrorists and renew their support for the
    Syrian government and army as government troops made major advancements
    in various parts of the country.

    The Syrian army killed a terrorist ringleader, Emad Eissa al-Amari,
    in Reef (outskirts of) Daraa on Monday. The Syrian army also made
    great advancements in Western Reef (outskirts of) Homs today, and
    repelled a terrorist attack on the area.

    The army pushed back a terrorist attack on a military check post
    near the Mihan town in the Western part of Reef Homs. At least,
    27 terrorists were killed in heavy clashes today.

    The army also purged terrorists from key areas in Central Homs. The
    Syrian troops advanced in Asvaq Abu al-Oaf town today. The army also
    found a chamber in the town of al-Vaar which has been used by the
    terrorists for torturing the people and army soldiers.

    Popular support for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has grown as
    20,000 volunteers will join the Syrian army by next week. This can
    help end the Syrian crisis in a shorter time, military analysts say.

    Last week, people across Syria took to the streets to show their
    support and solidarity with President Assad and the Syrian army after
    Assad called for a diplomatic solution to his country's crisis and
    also a halt to foreign military and financial backups for the armed
    rebel groups fighting the government.

    After President Assad's speech, people in tens of thousands took
    to the streets in different cities across the country to show their
    support for the president's policies.

    In Homs, people in various districts, including Shaare' Al-Hazareh,
    Wadi Al-Dahab, Akramatel Jadidah, Hayezzahra and Armen marched in
    support of President Assad and the Syrian Army and asked for the exit
    of terrorists and armed groups from different parts of Homs.

    During his speech at Damascus University on January 6, President Assad
    proposed a three-staged plan for forming the national unity government.

    The Syrian president underlined the need for continuing fights against
    the terrorists in his country.

    President Assad said his country is being subjected to an unprecedented
    attack, adding that the conflict can only be solved through a popular
    movement.

    Addressing the nation in a rare speech and his first since June,
    he said his forces were fighting groups of "murderous criminals".

    President Assad said Syria will not take dictates from anyone.

    He called on all Syrians to take part in an initiative that would
    end the nearly 22-month old conflict, but did not give any details
    on the plan.

    Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011 with organized
    attacks by well-armed gangs against Syrian police forces and border
    guards being reported across the country.

    The US and its western and regional allies have long sought to
    topple Assad and his ruling system. Media reports said that the
    Syrian rebels and terrorist groups have received significantly more
    and better weapons in recent weeks, a crime paid for by the Persian
    Gulf Arab states and coordinated by the United States.

    The US daily, Washington Post, reported in May that the Syrian
    rebels and terrorist groups battling the President Bashar al-Assad's
    government have received significantly more and better weapons in
    recent weeks, a crime paid for by the Persian Gulf Arab states and
    coordinated by the United States.

    The newspaper, quoting opposition activists and US and foreign
    officials, reported that Obama administration officials emphasized
    the administration has expanded contacts with opposition military
    forces to provide the Persian Gulf nations with assessments of rebel
    credibility and command-and-control infrastructure.

    Opposition activists who several months ago said the rebels were
    running out of ammunition said in May that the flow of weapons - most
    bought on the black market in neighboring countries or from elements
    of the Syrian military in the past - has significantly increased after
    a decision by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other Persian Gulf states to
    provide millions of dollars in funding each month.
