Daraa is an important agricultural region in Syria, known for its production of wheat and olives. It also holds historical and strategic significance. The city was a key site during the early protests of the Syrian revolution. The ongoing conflict has resulted in widespread damage and displacement, significantly affecting its agricultural and economic stability.

Currently, Daraa has seen some relative stability after the reconciliation agreements between the Syrian government and opposition forces. However, the region still faces significant challenges, including a lack of basic services like electricity and water. There are ongoing security concerns due to the presence of armed groups in some areas.
