On Thursday, armed rebels shelled al-Atef square near the train station with mortars, causing damage to nearby buildings.
Meanwhile, the Syrian capital Damascus, has been hit by one of the deadliest attacks since the start of the unrest in the country nearly two years ago.
A powerful car bomb went off near the headquarters of ruling Baath party and a school in al-Mazraa district of the capital on Thursday, killing at least 53 people, including children, and wounding 237 others.
There have been several civilians among the casualties of the bombing that was blamed on foreign-backed terrorists.
The attacks came as the Syrian army continues its operations in different areas of the country, especially near the border lines, to curb the spread of the terrorist assaults.
