BEIRUT, LEBANON (9:25 P.M.) - Amid an ongoing clean up operation in Syria's eastern Qalamoun region following the surrender of local rebel groups, the Syrian Army has discovered a large cache of US-built TOW anti-tank missiles.
According to reports (somewhat backed up by video evidence show below) government forces seized dozens of TOW missiles as well as several TOW launcher systems.
The missiles and launchers were discovered at a makeshift ammunition storage site that has been built into cave within the Al-Batra mountain chain.
In the past, rebel forces in eastern Qalamoun received weapons - including American designs like the TOW - from arms smugglers (undoubtedly contracted by the intelligence agencies of surrounding nations) operating out of southern Syria.
