Local sources in As-Suwayda confirmed killing a member of the regime's interior and the injury of an officer and a member of the "Political Security" branch, as a result of clashes that erupted in the vicinity of the governorate building with local armed groups.

Al-Suwayda 24 network said that violent clashes renewed between local armed groups and the regime forces in the vicinity of the governorate building and the police command in the city center, after the regime forces brought in reinforcements consisting of buses carrying dozens of members of the security services, which led to material damage to the police headquarters building after it was exposed to several shells.

These clashes come hours after clashes erupted near Al-Basel Roundabout in the city.

The escalation by the residents comes in response to the arrest of a young man by a security patrol in the capital, Damascus, against the background of his participation in demonstrations under the slogan "We want to live" in As-Suwayda last year.

In recent days, the regime forces recently sent huge military reinforcements to As-Suwayda, amid talk of an upcoming military operation.
