The Al-Bunyan al-Marsous Operations Room[7] (also transliterated as al-Banyan al-Marsous Operations Room)[4] is a coalition of insurgent groups active in Daraa Governorate, Syria during the Syrian civil war.

Composition

The operations room includes southern factions of the Free Syrian Army, Jaysh Al-Yarmouk, Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham, Ahrar al-Sham,[8] Jaysh al-Islam[1] and Jamaat Bayt al-Maqdis al-Islamiya.[9] Members of the Islamic Muthanna Movement defected from ISIS in late March 2016, forming the al-Murabitin Brigade. The brigade emphasized that it was part of the operations room.[7]

History

The operations room launched a battle for the al-Manshiyah neighborhood in Daraa in February 2017,[10] to control the Daraa Border Crossing.[11] The battle lasted until May 2017.[12]

The spokesperson of the operations room is Abu Shaimaa.[13]
