The ruling Ba'ath party in Syria replaced half of its members in the leadership on Saturday during a meeting chaired by President Bashar al-Assad, state news agency SANA reported.
Half of the 15 members of the Regional Command were replaced during the meeting of the central committee of the Ba'ath party.
During the meeting, Assad said the countries against the Syrian government have used all their tools in the war against Syria, "primarily the Wahabi and Muslim Brotherhood terrorism," highlighting that the battle between the Ba'ath party and extremist currents isn't a new thing, but dates back to the 1960s.
He said the war on terrorism will not stop as long as one terrorist remains in Syria, adding that Syria will continue to confront Western forces seeking to undermine its unity and sovereignty.
In late 2016, the Regional Command of the party made a complete change to the leaderships in the party's 11 branches across Syrian provinces.
The party was formed in 1947 and assumed power in 1963, with Assad currently as the regional secretary general.
