Damascus, March 26 (RHC-NNN) - The Syrian army on Tuesday thwarted rebels' offensive against a key military observation site, in the north-western province of Latakia, inflicting heavy losses upon the rebels, Syria's state media reported.

The army foiled the attack on the 45 Observatory, a military observation tower atop the al-Turkman mountain in Kasab, the report said. The attackers were forced to retreat toward the north-east under heavy fire from government troops.

The clashes in Latakia's rugged coastal regions have been incessant since Friday, mainly in the contested town of Kasab bordering Turkey.
