gunmen belonging to an "armed terrorist group" opened fire in broad daylight on the two colonels in the Bab al-Hadid traffic circle in the center of Aleppo. The high-ranking officers, identified as Abdel-Karim al-Rai and Fuad Shaban, were on their way to work.
In eastern Ghouta, a suburb a few kilometers (miles) from Damascus, gunmen kidnapped pilot Mohammad Omar al-Dirbas, a brigadier, while on his way to work, SANA said. The agency did not say where the three worked or what their positions were.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attacks. The Syrian government blames the uprising on terrorists
