Syrian Army to Take Control of Border-Crossings with Jordan

Jordanian sources reported that the Syrian Army troops will once again seize control over the border-crossings as the pro-government forces are significantly advancing against terrorists in the Southern territories of the war-hit country.

The Arabic-language Ray al-Youm daily quoted the Jordanian sources as saying that Amman, with Russia's mediating role, is reviewing the Syrian soldiers' return to the border-crossings between the two countries.

The sources told the paper that a Jordanian coordinating committee is in contact with Damascus through Russian mediation to see how the Syrian troops can return and take control of Nasib border-crossing.

"The Syrian army troops are faced with no hudle to take back the Nasib border-crossing, and Amman is also interested to see the Syrian army's control over the passageway," the sources told the paper.

Ray al-Youm went on to say that the opportunity to open Nasib border-crossing has been created after coordinated contacts between officials of the Russia-Jordan Joint Operation Room.

Jordan closed off unilaterally Nasib border-crossing two years ago when the Syrian army men pulled back from the region.
