Recently, the last rebels in Al-Rastan were transported from northern Homs to the Idlib Governorate after they refused reconciliation terms with the Syrian government.
Al-Rastan was a long-time stronghold of the Free Syrian Army (FSA) and one of the first towns to fall to the aforementioned rebel group in 2011.
