Al-Suwaidaa | Tens of Christian families return to their village after six years of displacement, under agreements with Russian-backed factions
2020-05-04
[SYRIAHR] Reliable sources have informed the Syrian Observatory that a large number of inhabitants of Kharba village in the western countryside of al-Suwaidaa, near the administrative border with the eastern countryside of Daraa, returned to their homes in the past 24 hours, after being forced to displace in 2014.

According to SOHR sources, Kharba village used to be inhabited mostly by Christian citizens who were forced to displace years ago fleeing the military operations their. After the return of Russian-backed regime forces to impose their influence on south Syria, tens of the village’s residents were able to return under agreements with factions which mediate reconciliation deals with the Syrian regime, especially the affiliates of the Russian-backed 5th Corps.

According these agreements, the 5th Corps has emptied the village of the Bedouin who displaced to it over the past few years, clearing the way for the return of tens of indigenous families. The families returned to their village yesterday in the presence of a Russian delegation and another delegation including commanders of Russian-backed factions which mediate reconciliation deals, Christian and Moslem clergies, elders and dignitaries form Daraa and al-Suwaidaa.
