The Syrian regime on Sunday regained total control of the central city of Homs with the evacuation of rebels from the last area they had controlled, France 24 reports.
On Saturday, 3,000 evacuees, including 700 rebels, were due to be taken out of Waer.
"There are no more weapons or armed men in Waer... we can declare Homs to be a secure city," Homs provincial governor Talal Barazi said, referring to the rebels.
He added that the Syrian security services had now entered the former rebel bastion.
