The Falcons of al-Ghab (Tajammu Suqour al-Ghab) was a Syrian rebel group affiliated with the Free Syrian Army that was formed in the early stage of the Syrian Civil War. It was part of the Hama Military Council and operated in the western Hama Governorate. The group received BGM-71 TOW anti-tank missiles as it is part of the Supreme Military Council.[2]
History
The group played an important role in the capture of the al-Ghab region and was also involved in the so-called "Great Badr al-Sham" offensive in northern Hama.[2]
On 24 October 2015, they fully integrated into Jaysh al-Nasr, turning it from an operations room to a united group.[1]
