[edit]

I don't think this article should be merged. If someone has the time they should expand on the article. The Human Right's Watch article in the external links sections goes into detail about these events. --Guest2625 (talk) 01:28, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

All the article says about the "blockades" themselvs is this:

The first town besieged was Douma, a suburb of Damascus, which began on 25 April. This was soon followed by the blockading of various other towns and suburbs such as Moadamyeh, Darayya, Zabadani, Kanaker, Kiswah, and neighborhoods of Damascus such as Irbin, Zamalka, Saqba, Midan, Qadam, Hajar al Aswad, Qaboun, Salhiyeh, Harasta, and Mezzeh.

Unless that's expanded a lot then the article should be merged. ~Asarlaí 01:31, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Towns/Suburbs/Neighborhoods

[edit]

Note that there is nothing called "suburbs" in Damascus, all near towns and villages in the whole governorate is called simply "Rif dimashq". Second, Midan, Qadam, Hajar al Aswad, Qaboun, Salhiyeh and Mezzeh are all neighborhoods in the heart of Damascus, they are the last thing that may be called "Suburbs" --aad_Dira (talk) 16:18, 23 February 2012 (UTC).[reply]
