Report: 3 Syrian army officers defect to Turkey
Two Syrian generals and a colonel have defected to Turkey, the country's state-run television reported on Friday as the Syrian forces appeared to be targeting more rebellious areas, including the northern province of Idlib near Turkey.
The report of the defections came as UN humanitarian chief Valerie Amos toured Syrian refugee camps along the Turkish-Syrian border before talks with Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu. (AP)
