Syrians have come out across the country
in a nationwide show of solidarity with people
in the south here who are facing raids, incursions,
arrests and shootings by Israeli troops who
invade sovereign Syrian territory on a near daily basis.
People came out in Damascus, in Homs,
in Hasakah, in Aleppo and in Idlib.
But it is here in Daraa where the protests are strongest,
the capital of one of the provinces
that is facing this Israeli aggression.
We refuse any form of Zionist occupation,
even American Zionism, even if it's not Zionist by itself.
Dozens of Syrians are still detained inside Israel.
Farmers and shepherds are prevented from accessing
the land that they need to make a living.
We don't want a war. The people are out of a war.
They don't want a war.
The amount of Israeli extradition that caused or demanded
that the people move against it, even individually, is ready.
When Israeli troops come in, they set up checkpoints,
they bulldoze barriers across the roads,
and they're even constructing new military berms and roads themselves.
Only on Thursday morning, during one of these incursions,
Israeli troops shot and killed a disabled man.
People across the south are growing increasingly frustrated
that it seems like neither their government nor the UN forces
that are responsible for patrolling the border and the buffer zone
seem able to protect them.
