The newly-brokered reconciliation agreement in Daraa al-Balad, the southern part of the Syrian city of Daraa, has collapsed.
Syrian authorities and local leaders reached the agreement on July 24, following extensive talks sponsored by Russia. According to the available information, former rebels failed to honor their commitments.
Early on July 27, former rebels opened fire at a force of the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) 4th Division that was entering Daraa al-Balad to establish pre-agreed upon posts. The SAA responded, as a result clashes broke out. Casualties were reported.
The clashes cooled down by the end of the day. Syrian authorities and local leaders met to save the agreement. Nevertheless, the situation escalated again on July 28, when clashes renewed around Daraa al-Balad.
In a statement, the leaders of former rebels stressed that they want a peaceful agreement. Yet, they said they were willing to accept an evacuation that would see all families in Daraa al-Balad leaving to opposition-held areas.
Syrian authorities have been pressuring Daraa al-Balad leaders to improve security measures in the area, not to displace the locals.
Under the last reconciliation agreement, former rebels in Daraa al-Balad promised to hand over their personal arms. Some weapons, including anti-tank rockets and heavy machine guns, were indeed handed over. However, much more are still in the hands of the locals.
The SAA, which deployed a large, heavily-armed strike force around Daraa al-Balad over the last few days, appears to be determined to impose its demands.
The current stand of Daraa al-Balad leaders, who failed to honor their commitments, is warring. The army is clearly ready to employ a military solution. Russia is reportedly in talks with both sides to resolve this crisis.
They’re all part of the same club. Its time to wake up people.

Stop trying to accomodate those Apes,kill them on sight.
Aren’t we supposed to believe that Assad controls that part of Syria? It looks like Assad has opposition right inside his territory. I think Turkey should find a way to reach those rebels and support them with armament and training. Opposing dictatorship should be the duty of every single Syrian. Russia sponsoring/brokering peace talks. LOL. Syria is your next Afghanistan, Mr. Putin, so get used to that. Russia is yet to face the worst in Syria. Thousands of Syrian rebels have been trained and battle-tested by Turkey. These guys are now a professional army capable of operating a wide range of ground warfare machines. All they need now is air support, and Turkey will provide that over time. Syria is costing Russia ten times more than Turkey. The next mistake Assad and Russia make in killing Turkish soldiers, even Assad’s dictatorial palace will be bombed from the air. And if Russia wants to stand in the way, they are hopelessly outgunned, out-numbered, and cut off from the Syrian battlefield. It will not be a disgrace of just Russian air defenses, but also the fighting capability of the Russian military. Turkey will prove to the world how a paper-tiger the Russian military is when it comes to fighting foreign wars. Yes, the Russian military can and will defend Russian soil from any aggressor. But they cannot and will not be able to defend the dictator should Turkey decide to annihilate Assad’s military. This is within Turkey’s full capability and Assad will be over and done with within days. If you want to see Assad fall, then let him try to retake Idlib.
no one wants to step on a turd..
