Family infighting | Three people killed and injured in Al-Suwaidaa countryside

Al-Suwaidaa province: SOHR sources have reported a dispute between two families in Al-Ghariyah town in Salkhad area in Al-Suwaidaa countryside. The dispute, which erupted for unknown reasons, evolved to clashes with arms and bladed weapons, which led to the death of a man and injury of his brother seriously.

 

Meanwhile, people from the town interfered to defuse the tension and settle the dispute, but some were injured because of cross fire.

 

This comes as a part of the proliferation of arms among civilians, amid regime authorities’ failure to control the security situation.
