Recent sectarian clashes in southern Syria, particularly in the predominantly Druze city of Sweida, have resulted in over 80 fatalities, with reports indicating at least 89 people killed during fierce confrontations between Druze militias and Sunni Bedouin tribes. Chaos has erupted as Syrian government forces have clashed with various armed groups, leading to a significant deployment of troops in the area. In response to the rising violence, Israel has conducted military strikes against Syrian tanks and positioned itself to protect the Druze minority, asserting that it will intervene to maintain stability. The situation remains tense, with ongoing fighting and calls for truce talks amidst the deteriorating security landscape.
