Daraa province: SOHR activists have reported that unidentified gunmen kidnapped a civilian from Muhajah town in Daraa countryside while he was on his way from Damascus to an ancient town in Al-Suwaydaa countryside to visit his friend. The kidnappers took the young man to an unknown destination.

The kidnappers demanded that his family pay a ransom of 10,000 USD for the young man’s release, while his family appealed to the concerned authorities to intervene to save and release the kidnapped man.
