Shaher Jabr Omran (Arabic: شاهر جبر عمران) is a Syrian security official who served as commander of Internal Security in Daraa Governorate from 25 May to 5 November 2025.

Early life

He was born Al-Qenniyah, Daraa.[1]

He was arrested by the Assad regime in 2006 and was transferred between security branches and Sednaya Prison. He was released in 2011, following the start of the Syrian revolution.[2]

Role during the Syrian civil war

He joined the Syrian opposition and participated in fighting in Damascus and then in Daraa. He then joined the Al-Nusra Front, and was appointed as a security official in southern Syria within the group in 2014.[2]

After he was deported to opposition-held territories in Idlib Governorate following the 2018 Southern Syria offensive, he worked in the Central Control and Inspection Department within the General Security Directorate of Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham. In 2019, he established and managed the Central Information Branch within the General Security Directorate.[2]

In 2022, he was tasked with managing infiltration operations against the Syrian government in Daraa, Suwayda, and Quneitra Governorates.[2]

Prior to the fall of the Assad regime, he was also known by the noms de guerre Abu al-Baraa and Abu Qasim 105.[2]

Post-Assad

On 29 January 2025, Omran attended the Syrian Revolution Victory Conference and delivered a speech.[3]

By 31 March 2025, he held the rank of brigadier general and position of security director of Daraa Governorate.[2][4]

On 25 May 2025, he was appointed Internal Security commander of Daraa Governorate, as part of a broader organizational restructuring by the Syrian Ministry of Interior.[5]

On 5 November 2025, he was transferred to the General Intelligence Service and was succeeded by Mohammed Ibrahim al-Sukhni.[6]
