AL-SOURA, Syria (Dispatches) -- Militants controlling several towns in southern Syria were on Friday considering a deal for a government takeover, state media and an activist group said.
Syrian state news agency SANA has reported that militants in three towns in Daraa's eastern countryside had already agreed to a government takeover over the last two days. On Friday, it carried preliminary reports that rebels in four more towns had "agreed to hand over their weapons... and reconcile". Syria's army on Friday organized a press tour of recently recaptured towns in the south, including Soura.
