ISWNews Analysis Group: Following the recent clashes in the southern province of Daraa, a meeting between Russian forces and the Daraa militants was held this afternoon in the Daraa al-Balad neighborhood of the city of Daraa with the aim of reducing tensions in the region.

The meeting, which took place without the presence of Syrian Army representatives, lasted about two hours. The Russian commander present at the meeting with the militants is scheduled to meet with the commanders of the Syrian army and convey the provisions of the meeting with the militants to them.

According to the information collected by ISWNews, after the flight of the Syrian army reconnaissance drone over Daraa al-Balad around 12 o’clock today, rocket attacks on this area intensified so that in less than an hour more than 40 rockets were fired at Daraa al-Balad . This morning, the militants also clashed with the forces of the 4th Division of the Syrian Army in the Daraa al-Balad neighborhood.

Given the actions and conditions of the Syrian army and the opposition of the militants, there has been no improvement in the situation so far. Russia’s mediation efforts have so far been ineffective. The Russians are well aware of the strategic importance of the southern regions and Daraa province, and the increase in tensions and conflicts in the southern regions will reduce their influence and concentration in southern Syria.
