The Arabic-language al-Watan reported that the terrorist groups of Al-Wiyah Mojahed Hooran, al-Wiyah Jidro Hooran, Toweiresh Elite 1st Brigade and Osama Bin Laden Brigade have formed a new collation in Dara'a province known as Jidro Thowar Coalition.

In the meantime, Chief Coordinator of the Jidro Thowar Coalition Bashar al-Fares announced that the terrorist groups have formed a coalition in the two regions of Jidro and in a region among Northern Dara'a, Western Damascus and Northern Quneitra known as the Death Triangle to unite the terrorist groups to resist against the advancing Syrian Army troops.

Al-Fares went on to say that the Jidro Thowar Coalition has been formed to cooperate with other terrorist groups to slow down the army's advances.

Field sources reported last week that the Syrian Army dispatched a large number of forces and a large volume of equipment to a region among Northern Dara'a, Western Damascus and Northern Quneitra known as the Death Triangle to intensify anti-terrorism operation.

The sources reported that the army forwarded a large number of soldiers and military hardware, including a large number of tanks, to Jediyeh Battalion base West of the town of al-Sanamein in Dara'a province and the Death Triangle to reinvigorate the pro-government forces' front to carry out an imminent operation against the Al-Nusra Front (Tahrir al-Sham Hay'at or the Levant Liberation Board).
