Syria’s Al-Sharaa Flees Fearing Assassination? 70,000 Syrian Fighters ATTACK Israeli Druze In Sweida

Syria Clash: Intense fighting has reignited in and around Suwayda between Druze militias and Bedouin tribal fighters, despite a declared ceasefire. An estimated 50,000–70,000 fighters from the Arab Tribal Army have mobilized against the Druze, triggering mass displacement, civilian casualties, and widespread destruction — including regime-affiliated groups burning Druze homes in Mazraa village. Bedouin commanders have rejected the ceasefire, and reinforcements from Idlib — a stronghold of HTS — are reportedly joining the assault. Amid this chaos, HTS leader Abu Mohammad al-Jolani has fled Damascus. #SyriaDruzeClashes #BedouinDruzeConflict #JolaniFlees #SweidaViolence #DruzeVsBedouin #SyrianTribalWar #SyriaDruzeCrisis #BedouinDruzeTensions #SyriaTribesClash #DruzeClashes2025 #SyriaDruzeWar #SweidaTribalViolence #DruzeInSyria #BedouinVsDruze #DruzeConflictNews #SyriaEthnicViolence ~HT.318~ED.102~PR.152~GR.122~

Iranian FM BLASTS U.S for Warmongering | Warns EU to abandon ‘worn-out policies of threat’ for talks

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi launched a fiery rebuke against the U.S. and EU, accusing Washington of warmongering and using diplomacy as a facade for conflict. He slammed the EU’s pressure tactics, warning of dire consequences if snapback sanctions are imposed.
