The network put him in touch with the Al-Faruq Brigade, which groups some 12,000 fighters countrywide, as well as with the mainstream rebel Free Syrian Army's military councils. Munar's month-long stints in the country have taken him to several rebel-held towns in the northwestern province of Idlib, as well as to key hub Aleppo in the north. AFP PHOTO / STR
