Syrian Army uncovers mass grave in east Daraa
2018-07-25
[ALMASDARNEWS] Following rebel mass surrender in east Daraa countryside, the Syrian authorities are working to secure the area through an inclusive mop-up operation.

Assisted by locals of Sahoah town in the eastern countryside of Daraa, the Syrian Army uncovered a mass grave which contains 16 corpses for fallen soldiers.

In 2013, rebel forces attacked the Air Defense Battalion in the town; slaughtering all 16 troops defending the base.

According to a military source, more mass graves are expected to be found in the southern province.

However,
some people are alive only because it's illegal to kill them...
the government forces, supported by Russian Arclight airstrikes, have taken over almost the entire rebel-held territories in Daraa province; mostly through reconciliation deals.
