Badia security patrols in Jabal al-Amour in eastern Homs countryside: strengthening security and encouraging residents to return

Homs countryside, Syria ·

Badia security patrols deployed in Jabal al-Amour and its surroundings have helped residents feel safer. The deployment is encouraging families who were forcibly displaced for years to return to their villages and resume farming.

Syria's conflict, which began in 2011, displaced large numbers of people from towns and villages across the country, including Homs province. The return of many families has been slow.
