An Austrian defense ministry official said Syrian opposition fighters have captured a crossing point along a ceasefire line patrolled by U.N. troops between Syria and Israel, according to AP. Col. Michael Bauer of the Austrian defense ministry says the opposition fighters fighting Bashar Assad's army captured the crossing in Quneitrah on the Golan Heights. Bauer says none of the peacekeepers were harmed. He says they have pulled back from the crossing. Austria's contingent with the U.N. patrols the area on the Golan Heights, which Israel captured in the 1967 war.
