Rebels Battle Into the Night to Control Military Base Just Outside Damascus.
Rebels battle into the night to control a helicopter base just outside Damascus. They say they destroyed two helicopters and took 15 people captive. It is their latest gain in a costly battle to unseat President Bashar al-Assad. The video, which could not be independently verified by Reuters, comes as rebel forces draw nearer to Assad's seat of power. A Western diplomat told Reuters that Assad still had the upper hand in the fight.
