In the past 72 hours, intense conflict has been reported in the Dara’a al Balad area, especially in Manshiya neighborhood, of Dara’a City. Airstrikes, barrel bombs, and missiles have forced civilians to flee the city, largely to areas in the eastern part of Daraa’a governorate. While over a week ago, temporary displacement was reported, with people leaving the city during the day and returning at night, an increase in insecurity, even into the evening hours, has resulted in longer displacement. As many IDPs have fled to towns and rural areas outside of Dara’a city, humanitarian needs are high, with many IDPs fleeing their homes with little.
