Government forces bring in military reinforcements Daraa
2022-03-18


DARAA, Syria (North Press) – On Thursday, the government forces brought in military reinforcements to the northern countryside of Daraa and reinforced one of its most prominent military checkpoints with heavy vehicles and dozens of members.

“The government forces brought in military reinforcements, including heavy vehicles, from some of their military sites in the countryside of Daraa governorate to Jassim city in the northern countryside of Daraa,” a local source told North Press.

“The government forces reinforced the National Hospital checkpoint, one of the most prominent and largest checkpoints in Jassim city, north of Daraa, with a number of heavy vehicles and more than thirty personnel,” the source said.

The reinforcements came to the city two days after the state of tension that it witnessed as a result of the clashes between the government forces and local fighters at the backdrop of the government forces entering the city with the aim of arresting some young men.

The government forces withdrew hours after an agreement was reached between the city’s notables and the government forces officers to withdraw all the government forces and stop the military operation, in exchange for the release of five members who had been captured by local fighters.
