Syria: Militant evacuation resumes in Homs and Hama

The evacuation of militants and their families through the Al Rastan corridor in the Homs Province continued on Saturday, with militants also being evacuated through the Kafat crossing point in Hama Province.

The group evacuating through Al Rastan is reportedly travelling from the northern Homs countryside, and the second group is being evacuated from the southern Hama countryside.

The recent evacuation is part of a deal struck with the Syrian government that will grant the militants and their families’ safe passage to Idlib province.

Some 6,000 militants and members of their families are said to have been evacuated on Saturday, bringing the reported total departures to 16,000.
