The Situation in Daraa Since the Government of Syria Took Control of the Province Monitoring of Violations – Report 6 21 June 2019 I
The Situation in Daraa since the Government of Syria Took Control of the Province Monitoring of Violations – Report 6 21 June 2019 I. Introduction The Syrian Civic Platform (SCP) monitors violations in the Daraa province, which has been subject to Russian-brokered settlement agreements with the Government of Syria (GoS). This report is the sixth report monitoring the situation in Daraa since the GoS took control of the province. A sense of anticipation prevailed in Daraa during May 2019 as a result of recent developments in Idlib province. This report monitors the security situation in Daraa, which was marked by an increasing number of kidnappings and killings in various areas. Additionally, this report monitors the poor economic situation as a result of high prices and scarcity of materials during the month of Ramadan, and the absence of many basic materials due to the fuel crisis. II. Security situation The following is a summary of assassinations and killings according to the areas where they occurred: § Al-Sanamayn: The town of al-Sanamayn witnessed tensions that led to the blocking of all the entrances to the town, including agricultural roads, which prevented the entry of materials. This occurred after clashes erupted following the arrest of four young men by the GoS’s Criminal Security Branch in the town. The clashes resulted in injuries to a police officer and a number of civilians, prompting the GoS to send heavy military vehicles to protect the security complex in the town center. The town center is the center of the Syrian Army's Ninth Division as well as the operation center of the Lebanese-Hezbollah militia.

Email: [email protected] 13 ABSTRACT 14 The Yarmouk River basin is shared between Syria, Jordan, and Israel. Since the 1960s, Yarmouk 15 River flows have declined more than 85% despite the signature of bilateral agreements. Syria and 16 Jordan blame each other for the decline and have both developed their own explanatory narratives: 17 Jordan considers that Syria violated their 1987 agreement by building more dams than what was 18 agreed on, while Syria blames climate change. In fact, as the two countries do not share information, 19 neither on hydrological flows nor on water management, it is increasingly difficult to distinguish 20 between natural and anthropogenic factors affecting the flow regime. Remote sensing and multi- 21 agent simulation are combined to carry out an independent, quantitative, analysis of Jordanian 22 and Syrian competing narratives and show that a third cause for which there is no provision in 23 the bilateral agreements actually explains much of the changes in the flow regime: groundwater 24 over-abstraction by Syrian highland farmers.
