According to opposition sources, the SAA targeted a FSA convoy with IEDs. After the explosion of the IEDs on the road of Kafr Shams, the SAA targeted the survived militants with an ATGM. 20 militants, including military commanders Ahmed Abdul Awad Al-Harir,Ali Yusuf Al-Muqbel Al-Hariri andAhmed Al-Hussein, were killed.
The SAA has significantly reinforced its positions in Daraa city and its vicinity. The Fourth Armoured Division, Al-Ghaith Forces, were deployed in the city in preparation to launch an operation aimed at regaining control over the Al-Manshiya district.
Some pro-government sources believe that the operation may be expanded to include the entire Daraa city and the Naseeb crossing on the Jordanian-Syrian border.
In May, Al-Ghaith Forces managed to capture Qaboun district in Damascus, and it considered one of the most experienced Syrian forces, Al Gaith force also have advanced equipment, and a very strong fire support.

Long live SAA!
Give them their own medicine.
Great news ??
Very awesome keep up the ambushes and the FSA casualty count!!! I liked that video at the end too! But I would be scared of roadside IEDs or something, I hope they did not encounter any
If the Jordanian border is closed and mantained, in practice the War will be over, since the main goal is the gas pipeline. At the time the north passage is granted with the kurds. But it wont make sense without the south entrance. Furthermore the main entrances of arms comes from Turkey and Jordan borders. Thats why the USA coalition is desperate to keep the Jordan border under their control.
