In A Major Defeat For The Assad Government, The Syrian City Of Idlib Has Fallen To Rebel Forces



Al Jazeera: Fall of Idlib: Turning point for rebels in Syria?

Coalition of rebel groups, including al-Qaeda linked Nusra, take key city in biggest blow to Assad forces in two years.

It was not that long ago that forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad were making rapid gains across Syria.

But the capture of Idlib by a rebel coalition, including the al-Qaeda linked Nusra Front, marks a major defeat for the Syrian government.

The fall of the city may be an indication that Assad's forces are struggling to keep the momentum they gained on the battlefield last year.
