Al-Tulaysiyah (Arabic: الطليسية, also spelled Tleisa or Tuleisa) is a village in northern Syria, administratively part of the Hama Governorate, located northeast of Hama. Nearby localities include Fan al-Shamali to the south, al-Hamraa to the southeast, Atshan to the northwest, Ma'an to the west and Kawkab and Suran to the southwest. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics, Al-Tuleisa had a population of 824 in the 2004 census.[1] Its inhabitants are predominantly Alawites.[2]

In mid-May 2013, during the Syrian civil war, the residents abandoned the village after anti-government rebels launched an attack to capture it. After a firefight with a Syrian Army patrol, the rebels captured al-Tulaysiyah.[3] On 14 April 2014, there was shelling from al-Tulaysiyah (where there is a gathering of pro-government troops) against the village of Atshan.[4] On 20 April, rebels attacked the government-held village and destroyed three military vehicles and shelled Brigade 66.[5] On 5 July, nine rebels were killed by a Syrian Army ambush as they were en route to attack checkpoints in al-Tulaysiyah.[6] On 2 September, pro-government militia from the village attacked the town of Tal Khazneh.[7] On 27 Sep 2016, rebels took control of al-Tulaysiyah town and its hill.[8] On 8 October, taking advantage of rebel-infighting in the nearby Idlib province,[9] the Army launched a counter-attack and recaptured al-Tulaysiyah.[10][11]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
