"Units of the armed forces cleansed al-Hameh and Qudsayya areas in Damascus countryside of armed terrorist groups, declaring them safe areas," the state-run Syrian Arab News Agency reported Sunday.
But opposition members painted a different picture of al-Hameh, saying forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad "carried out a massacre in the city and field-executed 20 individuals."
They were among the 51 people reportedly killed nationwide Sunday as the Syrian civil war rages into its 19th month.
In the beleaguered province of Homs, warplanes reportedly shelled a water plant in the city of Qusair, the opposition Local Coordination Committees of Syria said.
Less than an hour later, the LCC said the rebel Free Syrian Army shot down a warplane in Qusair.
