Armed men affiliated with the Syrian transitional government, stationed in the eastern Daraa countryside, launched a heavy weapons attack on the towns of Dhibin and al-Tha'la in the Sweida countryside late last night.

ANHA correspondents from Sweida reported that the sounds of clashes heard throughout Sweida city resulted from local military forces in the town of Dhibin in the southern Sweida countryside repelling an attack by militants who violated the ceasefire by targeting the town with heavy machine guns from late at night until this morning.

They reported that clashes are still ongoing, with local fighters repelling the attack.

They explained that the attack caused panic among civilians and constitutes a violation of the ceasefire agreement between the two sides.
