Syrian army deserters ambushed and killed four soldiers in the southern province of Daraa on Wednesday, an opposition group said dpa reported

The attack occurred on a road linking the village of Khirbet Ghazaleh and the town of Dael in Daraa province, near the Syrian border with Jordan, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights added.
