Intermittent clashes in several areas; FSA holds on to its positions; violent artillery and rocket shelling against most areas; 5 martyrs (including 4 killed as their car is shelled) and a number of injuries; humanitarian and medical situation utterly miserable
*** Recent developments***
In the early morning, a convoy of 8 tanks, 4 BMP vehicles, several DShK vehicles and a number of troop-carriers moved towards the city coming from Al-Mazzeh Airport. Another convoy came via Daraa Highway and Almaamil Road. Intermittent clashes broke out in several areas including Almaamil Road and Cemetery Roundabout. The FSA repelled the attacks and inflicted casualties on regime forces.
Meanwhile, most neighbourhoods were targeted with intense shelling by rocket launchers and heavy artillery, as well as by the tanks trying to break through the ranks of the FSA. A civilian car carrying 4 passengers was directly targeted with rockets which caused the death of the 4 passengers whose bodies were turned into pieces. Shelling concentrated on the western, southern and south-eastern areas and caused several injuries as well as more destruction.
Military Jetfighters carried out air raids over the city and the towns of western Ghota.
***Today’s fallen heroes***
Daraya continues to sacrifice her dearest children on the altar of freedom and dignity. Four civilians were killed as their car received a direct hit from a rocket launcher based on Muaddamiya Mountain. The 5th martyr is an FSA fighter:
