Syrian rebels have reportedly entered the city of Homs, a strategic move that could potentially divide President Bashar al-Assad's regime in half. This development would separate pockets of territory on the coast from the capital city of Damascus.
A spokesperson for the northern rebels announced that after a series of nighttime operations, the remnants of the Assad regime are fleeing Homs. The rebels are now in the process of penetrating and clearing the city's neighborhoods, with the goal of declaring it fully liberated.
