Hundreds Escorted to Safety After Fleeing Terrorist Groups in Barada Valley

Hundreds of civilians have left their homes in the villages of Barada valley towards Al-Rawda in the Damascus countryside to escape terrorist organizations, SANA’s correspondent reported on Sunday.

The correspondent said that the civilians managed to reach Syrian army positions where they were provided with aid, while some were transported to temporary housing centers.

A source at the Syrian Arab Red Crescent told SANA that staff members are receiving the civilians who had fled from terrorists and are providing them with necessary assistance.

Terrorist groups, most of them belonging to Nusra Front (Jabhat Fateh al-Sham), are active in the villages of Barada valley, where they have attacked locals and water sources in the Ain al-Fijeh spring.
