Rebels Make Gains in Syria

Syrian rebel forces made some key gains, on Monday.

Near the Turkish border they finally captured Minnig Military Airport, after besieging it since January.

Nine different rebel groups were involved in the siege, including two that are members of the Al Qaeda terrorist network.

The base finally fell after a suicide bomber drove a truck into the last government stronghold and blew everything up.

Ten rebel groups, including two from Al Qaeda, are operating there.
