The Syrian News Agency (SANA) quoted the head of internal security in Sweida Governorate, Ahmad Al-Dalati, as saying that an agreement had been reached to allow civilians wishing to leave to do so, until their safety is secured and their return is guaranteed. He affirmed the security authorities’ commitment to “ensuring the safe departure of those who wish to leave and allowing entry for those who wish to return.”
Al-Dalati noted that internal security forces had imposed a security cordon around the city of Sweida to secure it and halt the fighting inside, as part of the state's efforts to restore stability and protect civilians.
Photos released by the Syrian Ministry of Interior showed the first moments of the evacuation of several Bedouin families who had been detained in the city for several days.
The evacuation took place amid a widespread field deployment of internal security forces, who worked to secure the area and ensure the safety of civilians throughout the process.
