Tens of buses and cars reach the outskirts of Beit Jinn areas and preparations are under way to begin the new displacement to the Syrian north and south

Several reliable sources confirmed to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights that dozens of buses and cars arrived in the southwestern Rif Dimashq and stopped at the outskirts of the area, which witnesses a cessation of hostilities since the 25th of December, 2017. The sources informed the Syrian Observatory that the evacuation will take place during the coming hours after the completion of the boarding of the fighters of Hayaat Tahrir Al-Sham and the factions and their families and civilians refusing the Beit Jenn agreement on the buses. The agreement was reached between the factions and Tahrir Al-Sham and the regime authorities through mediations and they will be transferred to the province of Idlib in the north of Syria and to the province of Daraa in the south of Syria.

The SOHR published yesterday that The SOHR received information from several reliable sources about negotiation are currently being held in the southwestern Rif Dimashq to reach an agreement about the exit of Hayaat Tahrir Al-Sham from the southwestern Rif Dimashq to head to the province of Idlib in north Syria. The reliable sources asserted to the SOHR that the agreement will include fighters and their families and citizens who refuse this agreement so as to go out from the area. These negotiations came after weeks of heavy shelling that included hundreds of shells and missiles, believed to be surface-to-surface, and barrel bombs that were dropped from the regime’s helicopters, which have stopped shelling the area after a helicopter was taken down in early December and 3 officers on board were killed while it was flying over the southwestern Rif Dimashq. These negotiations also came after the regime forces and their allied militiamen besieged the factions and Hayaat Tahrir al-Sham in a small circle extending from Magher Al-Meer to the town of Beit Jenn, and the regime forces managed during the past ten days to divide the areas into parts and paralyzed the fighters of the factions and Hayaat Tahrir Al-Sham through firearm control on the roads between Magher al-Meer and Beit Jenn Farm and Beit Jenn town, through controlling hills overseeing the area.
