Regime forces carry out unprecedented fortifications on the contact lines with the areas which are out of their control in Hama and Daraa and ignite worry among the people
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights obtained information from several intersecting sources, who confirmed to the Observatory that the regime forces have been for days fortifying their positions in the provinces of Hama and Daraa in the center and south of Syria, where fortification are carried out on the lines of contact between the areas that are controlled by the regime forces and the areas which are out of their control in those provinces.
Reliable sources confirmed to the Syrian observatory that the fortifications were carried out by building dirt mounds and unprecedented fortifications in the countryside of Daraa Hama, where the regime forces began with these fortifications in the line between their controlled areas in the northwestern countryside of Hama and the areas that are controlled by the factions in the same countryside, to the east of the villages of Qabr al-Feddah, Ramlah, al-Karim, al-Rasif and Aziziyah, and the fortifications continue by regime forces who brought bulldozers and engineering vehicles to speed up the fortifications process, where this front has been quiet in terms of clashes for months, in conjunction with the continuation of the ceasefire agreement for its 21st consecutive day in areas from the north to the south of Syria, which includes Idlib province and the northern countryside of both Hama and Homs, the Eastern Ghouta and the Syrian south.
These fortifications and the building of these barricades were accompanied by a similar operation in the vicinity of al-Sanamin area towards Al-Suwaidaa province, where several reliable sources informed the Syrian Observatory that the regime forces have been bringing bulldozers and engineering vehicles, which started the fortification process by building and empowering barricades, while this process has ignited an upset and concerns among the people of the area from this unprecedented fortification process, and the sources of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights suggested that the fortifications in the countryside of Hama aim to protect the first line of defense from the villages controlled by the regime forces in Sahl Al-Ghab and in the northwestern countryside of Hama and the areas next to them, which are mostly inhabited by Alawite citizens, which are at the same time considered as the human reservoir for the regime forces.
