Headline of Al-Jazeera from the same day (August 5):

إيران تطالب تركيا وقطر بالتدخل في قضية المختطفين

Iran is asking Turkey and Qatar for intervention in the case of kidnappings.

According to official Iranian sources, those 48 Iranians should have been on their way by bus from Saida Sinab (*) to the international airport of Damascus when being captured. Saida Sinab is located about 16 kilometers away from Damascus. In the quoted article from Al-Jazeera there is no mentioning of the Free Syrian Army.

* Saida Sinab is named after a valuable woman, daughter of Imam Ali Ben Abi.

Comment by Ulysses:
The article of Al-Jazeera Online has been quoted because there are Western TV sources, most probably relying on Al-Jazeera and treating the subject as a mere "kidnapping by unknown bandits". This might be due to a different level of information for different news services. Today, Al-Arabiya seemed to be first in the daily race.
