    One factor complicating southwest negotiations: Opposition-side sources say Russia/Damascus aren’t putting the option of “tahjir” (“evacuation”/expulsion) to northern Syria on the table. With the Jordanian border and the Golan line closed, that means there’s no way out.

    Revolutionary civilians resign from negotiating team, slam their counterparts for 'self-serving, area-specific deals', call on civilians to take up arms and fight. 'We will issue further communiques appointing (new) military leaders for our war of independence'

    • If a deal can’t be reached, we may be looking at a rebel last stand in a tiny, kilometers-wide strip along the Jordanian border jammed with displaced civilians sheltering in the open.

    • This second contingent says it remains prepared to negotiate but seems to be making demands above GoS’s ceiling. It has chosen, one leader tells me, “an honorable death over a humiliating one.”

    Update on the southwest, per my understanding: • Busra al-Sham’s Shabab al-Sunnah has reached a deal with Russian negotiators, which may still be broadened to include other areas. • Another rebel contingent rejects Shabab al-Sunnah’s deal, which they consider “humiliating.”

    Indeed. This is absolutely not the case. People want to seek refuge in Israel, many understand it's not an option, so they're asking for protection on the Syrian-controlled side of the fence.

    "Aleph" says he doesn't believe that the Syrians from Daraa and Quneitra are interested in seeking refuge in Israel (Syria's long-time enemy). "There's a difference between coming to Israel for medical care and that." I'm not convinced this is the case.
