    Afrin telegram accounts saying this new Turkish led policy is due to a UN communique express concern over Afrin’s changing demographic. Unsure if this is true yet.

    Even HTS’s Ibaa’ news agency reporting on these evictions and clashes. Says Afrin city is in a state of instability due to assassinations, IEDs, infighting etc, leading to civilian discontent, panic and displacement

    Similar events taking place in Afrin city. Reported clashes between the Military Police and displaced people from Eastern Ghouta living in abandoned/confiscated homes going on near the Kawa roundabout.

    This means Faylaq al-Sham joins HTS and JTS as factions with affiliated news agencies (Ibaa’ and Medad, respectively). Fitting, considering these are the 3 most important rebel factions left.

    There are ~50 families in the Mabeta/Ma’abetli area that arrived in mid April after displacements in Eastern Ghouta and northern Homs. Unlike the Jandaris or Bulbul areas, there are no recently built IDP camps there meaning these people are living in abandoned/confiscated homes

    This article reports that the event that sparked the protests was a decision by a committee of the LC that asked 5 families from Eastern Ghouta/Homs to leave the houses they’ve claimed because the original inhabitants had returned.

    Roughly 4% of the pre-war adult male population of Daraya has been murdered in the Assad regime's dungeons.

    1000 names of our finest men who died under torture were released in the last couple of days by the Assad regime. 1000 names from Darayya, from one small town. Peaceful activists and civil society leaders.

    Interestingly, the Third Corps announced it was surrendering its security role in the Mabeta/Ma’abetli area to the newly created local police force, early in July.

    Some of these fires (including this one) have been documented by social media; H/T . Others appear to have mostly slipped under the radar.
