Kudish village.
Various mentions during Russian-Turkish joint patrols in 2020 confirm that this village is called "Quneitra/Qunaytra", and name "Sheikh Mansur" belongs to the neighboring village to the south (maybe the "Sham al-Sur" name is just a garbled version of the "Sheikh Mansur" name). In the mentions, Quneitra name is always located separately from "Sheikh Mansur" and is often were found side by side, which is evidence that these are two different villages located nearby - moreover, the Quneitra name was found separately without mentioning "Sheikh Mansur" for patrol routes that pass without leaving the Darbasiya highway into the southwestern countryside (or entering on the highway) near this village (for example, the route from Sherik village toward western Amuda countryside that turns off the highway near Qermaniya village) - this allows us to say with great confidence that Quneitra name refers to the village located right on the highway.
Several examples of such mentions (in fact, there are many more of them):
