Daraa: Tension between Russian-backed formation and regime forces on the rise

SOHR sources have reported seeing regime military build-up arriving in the vicinity of Nahteh and Al-Harrak in the eastern countryside of Daraa. The arrival of these reinforcement to Daraa comes after dignitaries and members of the Russian-backed “5th Corps” prevented regime forces from raiding civilian houses in Al-Harrak city.

On the other hand, regime forces raided some civilian houses in Um Walad town in the eastern countryside of Daraa where they arrested a civilian. The raids come in the wake of assassination attempt that targeted a regime soldier in the town.

Recently, assassinations which target regime forces, loyal militiamen and “collaborators” with regime, is widespread in Daraa province.
