Free Syrian Army Groups 'expelled' from Turkey.(Fars).According to a report by Arabi Press news website, defected Colonel Ahmad Hijazi admitted that Ankara has fired the rebel group from Turkish soil and gave it a deadline to transfer its central command to Syria. Meantime, he said FSA was also forced to move into Syrian soil in a bid to prevent further rift among rebel groups. The so-called Free Syrian Army announced on Saturday that is has moved its headquarters inside Syria for the first time since the start of crisis in Syria in 2011. Hijazi unveiled growing rift and internal disputes among the FSA groups, adding that the recent decision to move from Turkey to Syria has been taken to "unite all rebel groups". He further confirmed that there are problems in coordination and contacts between all FSA-affiliated brigades and factions in Syria. The opposition activists in Syria have derided the FSA leaders and other exiles as opportunists, removed from the battle and lacking credibility among the Syrians directly involved in the fighting. Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011 with organized attacks by well-armed gangs against Syrian police forces and border guards being reported across the country. Hundreds of people, including members of the security forces, have been killed, when some protest rallies turned into armed clashes. The government blames outlaws, saboteurs, and armed terrorist groups for the deaths, stressing that the unrest is being orchestrated from abroad.Read the full story here.
