Tension has been running high in AlMuzeireeb town, in the southern Syrian province of Deraa, following reports on the assassination of two young men.

The Action Group for Palestinians of Syria (AGPS) quoted a resident as stating that anonymous gunmen fatally shot Ibrahim Tatlou and Mohamed Anizan.

Palestinians taking shelter in AlMuzeireeb town continue to express deep concern over the security situation in the area as reports have increasingly emerged on new assassination attempts targeting Palestinian refugees.

AGPS documented the death of dozens of Palestinian refugees in AlMuzeireeb town, home to 1,700 Palestinian families and hundreds of other families displaced from Daraa refugee camp.
