FSA Leadership Back in Syria

Colonel Riad al-Asaad, leader of the Free Syrian Army, announced that he, and the rest of the leadership have reentered Syria.

They had been spending the past while in Turkey, to escape airstrikes from government forces.

The move is a sign of how confident the FSA is getting, as they gain more and more territory in the civil war.

Most likely the FSA will setup it's leadership in the province of Idlib or Aleppo.

Asaad says that the FSA wishes to unite with the other groups fighting President Bashar al-Assad's forces, and together take the capital of Damascus.

More than twenty-seven thousand people have been killed in the conflict, so far.
