Syrian military launches offensive in clashes with army defectors

Syria's state-run news agency says "terrorists" have ambushed a bus carrying soldiers on a road south of the capital Damascus, killing six soldiers and wounding six others.

It says an explosive device was detonated by remote control as the bus was traveling Sunday in the suburb of Sahnaya some 12 miles south of the capital.

SANA says those killed include two first lieutenants. Six other soldiers were injured.

The uprising against President Bashar Assad has become increasingly militarized recently as some frustrated protesters and army defectors arm themselves against the regime.

Pro-regime forces Saturday battled defectors in suburbs on the eastern edge of Damascus in the most intense fighting yet so close to the capital.
