Jordan Sends Tanks To Border Amidst Syrian Army Advance

This as German Chancellor Angela Merkel met with Jordan's King Abdullah in Amman on Thursday, telling him, "You live not just with the Syria conflict, but also we see Iran's activities with regard to Israel's security and with regard to Jordan's border." 

Beirut based Al Masdar News published the photos provided through its sources in the region with the description: The Jordanian military is deploying reinforcements, including heavy military equipment, on the border with the Syrian province of Daraa, according to Jordanian and Syrian sources.

As we reported this week, the long awaited battle for Daraa has begun despite repeat warnings issued to the Syrian government from the US not to extend its military campaign to the country's south, where the conflict first began with fierce anti-Assad protests in 2011 which quickly spiraled into violence. 

The convergence of geopolitical interests among the external and regional powers which have long fueled the Syrian proxy war makes Syria's southwest region the perfect storm for potential outside intervention and dangerous broader conflagration.
