Cairo, Safar 10, 1434, Dec 23, 2012, SPA - Opposing fighters in Syria said Sunday they had seized a government military camp near Damascus, building on its current offensive into the capital. DPA quoted Syrian Free Army as saying that its fighters had captured the camp in the area of Ras Al-Ein, in the outskirts of Damascus, after fierce clashes with government troops. The opposing fighters and troops loyal to President Bashar Al-Assad were also fighting in the suburban Damascus towns of Darya and Arabeen, reported the opposition Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. Opposition forces have been fighting government forces in and around Damascus for weeks, raising the possibility that Al-Assad could lose his hold on the capital. At least 130 people were killed Saturday across Syria, including 42 in and around Damascus, added the Britain-based Observatory. --SPA 13:07 LOCAL TIME 10:07 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/1061883
