At least eleven Iranian visitors have been kidnapped in Syria on a road between the city of Hama to Damascus, according to Press TV.
No further details of the incident have surfaced yet.
This is not the first time that Iranians have become the target of abduction by unknown gunmen in Syria over the past months.
A group of unidentified armed men attacked a bus carrying Iranian visitors on January 26 on the road connecting Damascus to the northwestern city of Aleppo.
The assailants kidnapped 11 men and drove off to an unknown destination, leaving the female passengers in the vehicle. Their whereabouts still remain unknown.
Meanwhile, five Iranian electrical engineers were also kidnapped by unknown gunmen in the restive Syrian city of Homs on December 21, 2011. Later, two other Iranians, who were trying to obtain information about the missing men, were also kidnapped, and their whereabouts were still unknown.
