Rebels led by two al Qaeda affiliates, the Al Nusrah Front and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, have killed over 200 people, captured dozens of villages, and seized an airport over the past two days in an Alawite area. Rebels are targeting aviation hubs in Aleppo as well, including the Kweiris military airport, the Neyrab military airport, and Aleppo International airport. The Tahrir al-Sham rebel brigade of the Free Syrian Army claimed it targeted President Assad’s convoy today in Damascus, but he later appeared on television unharmed.
