Several rebels resolve legal status with Syrian gov’t in Quneitra

The Syrian authorities continued the process of resolving the legal status of rebel fighters in the towns of Breka and Bir Ajam in Quneitra’s western countryside, the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) reported on Sunday.

According to the SANA report, the rebels that settled their cases with the government had previously agreed to remain in the Quneitra Governorate after a large number of militants left for northern Syria.

The SANA report said that the authorities resolved the legal status of dozens of armed people in Breka and Bir Ajam who handed over their weapons and pledged not to do any act that disrupts public safety.

Many other rebels have settled their cases with the Syrian government since the battle for the Daraa and Quneitra governorates concluded in August.
