Syria army captures key Ghouta town as rebels withdraw
Syria’s army captures the key town of Hammuriyeh in a southern pocket of Eastern Ghouta, a monitor says, after rebels pulled back and thousands of residents fled.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says Hammuriyeh fell to regime forces after Islamist rebels from Faylaq al-Rahman withdrew.
