According to local sources, military reinforcements associated with the Assad regime have recently arrived at the Military Irrigation Barracks situated between the towns of Yadouda and Muzayrib in the western Daraa region. Additionally, similar reinforcements have been reported in the al-Maftar area, which connects the Yadouda and Dahiya neighbourhoods at the western entrance of Daraa city.

The Ahrar Horan Gathering has stated that these recent reinforcements received over the past few days, consist of infantry units and heavy equipment, including vehicles, tanks, and ground-based anti-aircraft weaponry.

It has been noted that the regime frequently raises concerns about the presence of what they label as “outsiders” in the vicinity of Tafas city, using this as a pretext to impose taxes on landowners, particularly during the harvest season.

Additionally, they have set up a military checkpoint on the al-Bahs road connecting the cities of Jassim and Nawa, along with another checkpoint on the unpaved road connecting the cities of Jassim and Nakhil.

It has been elucidated that regime forces established a new military checkpoint east of Tal al-Hash along the route connecting the city of Nawa with the village of Burqa in the western Daraa region. This deployment followed the arrival of military reinforcements, including infantry units and heavy vehicles.

Sources have reported that regime force reinforcements have arrived at Tal al-Jabiya, located west of the city of Nawa, and other reinforcements have been deployed within the city of Daraa itself, distributed among various military facilities and barracks.

In the Lajat area, units from the Ninth Division have recently established new military checkpoints, along with constructing defensive earthworks and conducting security operations between the village of Khubb and the village of al-Dama near Sweida.
