FSA take control of key towns in Hama

Rebels have taken control of key villages from the Syrian government close to the city of Hama. The news comes in the wake of Syrian rebels in the suburb of Daraya surrendering control to the Syrian government after years of bitter fighting. 

Photos of citizens rounding up tyres to create a makeshift "no-fly-zone" in preparation for government air strikes have also surfaced on social media.
