Night clashes in Damascus countryside after arrest 2 young men

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that the town of Zakia in the Damascus countryside witnessed great tension yesterday evening, with clashes erupting between Damascus government forces and groups of young men from the town.

In the details, clashes erupted between Damascus government forces and a group of young men from the town of Zakia in the Damascus countryside against the backdrop of the arrest of two young men from the town's residents.

 According to information, a security patrol affiliated with the "Al Zaite checkpoint" opened direct fire on the two young men before arresting them and taking them to an unknown location.

In response to these developments, the Damascus government forces mobilized and sent massive military reinforcements, including heavy machinery, to the outskirts of the town, while reports of injuries among the Damascus government forces were reported.

With the continued tension and escalation in the town of Zakia, residents fear a deterioration in the security situation, in light of the intensive military reinforcements of the Damascus government forces and the possibility of more clashes, which increases the state of anxiety and tension in the area.

The town of Zakia, affiliated with the Al-Kiswah district in the Damascus countryside, has witnessed a state of security tension, as the "Fourth Division" affiliated with the Damascus government forces besieged the town last September to impose a "comprehensive settlement" in the area.
