From Syrian Perspective with the comment:

This is the Syrian Arab Army offensive in the Qalamoon Mountains. A little over 17,000 ISIS and Jabhat al-Nusra terrorists are under siege with no area to retreat. Explanation: The terrorists are surrounded on both sides. After the recent defeat in Sadad (Homs Governate), the insurgency is surrounded by SAA brigades comprised of the 1st Army Corps, 4th Mechanized Division, and the Revolutionary Guards. On the Lebanese border, Hezbollah soldiers from Ba'albak have obstructed the retreat. This battle will not end like Al-Qusayr; either the terrorists surrender or face annihilation.

Update Nov 17, 2013:

This is the updated map of the Qalamoun offensive. Currently, a decisive battle is going on in Qara. Keep and eye out for it.

Update Nov 20:

My new map of the #Qalamoun Offensive after the victory at Qara. This also shows the SAA's attack at Jarjeen.

Update Nov 29:

Note the Following Changes
1. Lebanese army units at border.
2. SAA advances in al-Zabadani.
3. Rebels attack "Cherubim Monastery", which is a SAA stronghold.
4. Rima Farms at Yabr...oud almost under full SAA control.
5. Al-Nabk almost under full SAA control.
6. Dayr Atiyya captured and secured by SAA.

Update Feb 12:

He notes that Al-Sahel has been "liberated" by now. He and other sources speak of a new Qalamoon offensive finally trying to take Yabroud. The nuns from Maaloula are still held hostage there.

Update Feb 13:

Al-Sahel and Reema Farms were the areas gained.

Update Mar 3:

Pay attention to Falita; it is almost enveloped

Update Mar 16:

Strategic town of Yabroud was taken. Many fighters said to have relocated to Rankus.

Update Mar 29:

Ras al-Ma'raa and Faleeta liberated.

Leith on update of April 16:

You all asked for it and now I am presenting it. This will likely be my last map of the Qalamoun Mountains and Zabadani region of Rif Dimashq. If you followed my maps since the inception of this battle, you can see the amazing progress of the SAA and Hezbollah forces. I hope these maps helped immensely. I am now shifting a lot of my attention to Aleppo.
