Murder | Baby girl found dead in northern Daraa

Syrian Observatory sources say that a two-year old girl was found dead in a deserted house in Jbab village in northern Daraa. According to SOHR sources, the girl was missing in suspicious circumstances two days earlier, while brutal deformation was noticed on her body. The perpetrators have yet to be known.

 

This incident comes in the wake of deteriorating security chaos across southern Syria.

 

On the other hand, unknown gunmen in a vehicle kidnapped a civilian in Da’el city in the Daraa middle countryside. The kidnappers took the civilian to unknown destination.

 

Since the beginning of security chaos in Daraa in early June 2019, Syrian Observatory activists have documented more than 472 attacks and assassination attempts by gunfire and detonations of IEDs, motorcycle-bombs and car-bombs. These attacks and assassinations claimed the lives of 306 persons, and they are as follows:

 

• 72 civilians, including seven women and four children

 

• 162 regime soldiers, loyalists and collaborators with regime security services

 

• 48 fighters of the faction who struck “reconciliation and settlements” deals with the regime and became in the ranks of regime’s security branches, including former commanders

 

• 17 Syrian militiamen affiliated to the Lebanese Hezbollah and Iranian forces

 

• Six members of the so-called 5th Corps which was established by Russia.
