    SYRIA IN LAST 24 HOURS: ARMY KILLS 500 MILITANTS NEAR TURKISH BORDER

    Fars New Agency, Iran
    March 27 2014

    TEHRAN (FNA)- The Syrian army killed hundreds of foreign-backed
    militants in the Northern parts of the war-hit country.

    The army units killed 500 terrorists who were trying to enter Syria
    from neighboring Turkey.

    Also in the past 24 hours, the Syrian army killed a senior militant
    commander in the Damascus countryside.

    The army units killed head of the Opposition Military Council in
    Al-Qalamoun region in Damascus countryside on Thursday.

    Also, the Syrian army killed a notorious terrorist ringleader in
    Felita region.

    The army killed Ahmad Navaf, commander of Seif Al-Haq battalions,
    in heavy clashes in Felita region.

    Meantime, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad warned of the dangers
    of terrorism and extremism backed by the West and some countries in
    the region.

    President al-Assad cautioned, during a meeting Thursday with an
    Armenian parliamentary delegation, that this extremist ideology
    poses a threat of fragmenting the region that has been historically
    characterized by cultural and social diversity, Syrian Arab News
    Agency reported.

    Elsewhere, Turkey's main opposition party criticized Prime Minister
    Recep Tayyip Erdogan for his policy on neighboring Syria.

    "The world's most immoral man is currently occupying the Turkish prime
    minister's seat. He wants to drag Turkey into a war against Syria,"
    said Kemal Kilicdaroglu, the leader of the Republican People's Party
    (CHP), in an interview with al-Monitor on Thursday.

    Kilicdaroglu also noted that Erdogan's ruling Justice and Development
    Party (AKP) is playing good-cop, bad-cop with the foreign-backed
    militants fighting against the government of Syrian President Bashar
    al-Assad.

    The opposition leader went on to say that the current conflict in
    Syria is not a threat to Turkey.

    Elsewhere, a car bomb blast rocked al-Arman neighborhood in the city
    of Homs, claiming the life of a civilian and injuring 11 others.

    A source in Homs province said that the Thursday bombing took place
    in the main street in the neighborhood where militants had earlier
    parked the car.

    The source said most of the injured are women and children, adding
    that the terrorist attack also caused great material damage to a
    number of houses, cars and shops.
