Syrian army killed 40 gunmen in Damascus countryside

The Syrian army units have killed scores of gunmen in Rankous town in the western side of Qalamon in Damascus countryside.

According to sources at Reconciliation committees, around 100 gunmen, who refused reconciliation in the Rankous town after liberating it from terrorist groups in April in 2014, were hiding in Jrod Rankous and they were infiltrating in the night into nearby towns to rob shops and to kidnap people and to demand ransoms.

Those gunmen were engaged in clashes with the Syrian army units in the region on Tuesday for several hours.

The clashes resulted in the death of 40 gunmen and the arrest of others. Several soldiers were also wounded in the clashes, according to Damascus-based al-Watan newspaper.
